The Long Hill Fire District sought a design-build team to design and construct a new fire station in Trumbull, CT. The new 17,345 square-foot facility was built adjacent to the previous Station No. 2, which was demolished upon completion of the new volunteer firehouse.
The new facility features three apparatus bays that can store two engines each in two of the bays for a total of five. The building is located on a hull side allowing the mechanic’s bay, district offices, conference/meeting rooms and exercise area to be on a lower level.
The building also features training integrated into the apparatus bay and training tower, PPE storage in a separate well-ventilated room, SCBA room, decon laundry, a separate bunker’s laundry, and sealed wall openings between the apparatus bay and the rest of the building.
