New Inn Station is temporarily relocating to Mamhilad Industrial Estate
Plans are in place for New Inn Fire Station to temporarily relocate to Mamhilad Industrial Estate, on Friday 15th November 2024.
Construction is underway to build a new, modern fire station on the current site of Station 33, New Inn.
During this period, the crew will be temporarily relocated to allow Firefighters to continue serving the area, without interruption to the quality or speed of emergency response.
The decision to temporarily relocate ensures that the safety and wellbeing of the community remains a top priority.
Scott Reed, Station Manager, commented: “While we are excited about the improvements the new station will bring, our commitment to protecting the community remains unchanged. We want to reassure the public that during this temporary move, the team is fully prepared to respond quickly and effectively to any emergencies that arise.
“We have carefully assessed travel times, access to main routes, and response strategies, confirming that the relocation will not impact on the level of service or availability of our crews.”
Benefits of the move
The new station, once completed, will bring significant benefits to both South Wales Fire and Rescue Service and the wider community, including:
South Wales Fire and Rescue Service would like to thank you for your patience and understanding during this time of positive development.
