Westland Relocates Fire Station 4
Westland is relocating Fire Station 4 to a new location east of the train tracks to improve emergency response times.
According to city officials, the project will not incur any additional costs to taxpayers.
"It served the community well, but it's outgrown both in run volume and in space,"said Fire Chief Darrell Stamper.
The new station will be located on Cherry Hill Road, just west of Newburgh Road, positioned east of the train tracks that have long delayed emergency crews.
Mayor Kevin Coleman explained the strategic advantage of the new location:
"It'll still be in the south end of the city, but it'll be east of the train tracks."
