Major Makeover for Reigate Fire Station Kicks Off
Reigate Fire Station in Surrey is gearing up for a major upgrade, with construction set to begin this October. The project will modernise the station’s facilities, boosting safety, efficiency, and sustainability to better protect the local community.
Top-Notch Upgrades Across the Board
- Improved health and safety features for fire crews
- New welfare spaces including a modern kitchen, gym, dormitories, and lounge
- Expanded appliance bays to fit a bigger fleet of fire engines
- Dedicated area for the South East Coast Ambulance Service
- Cleaner, greener building designs
Even during construction, the station’s fire crews and appliances will stay fully operational, moving temporarily to an on-site building to keep emergency response seamless.
Fire Chief Backs the Upgrade
“We are pleased to begin the necessary improvements to Reigate Fire Station. This investment means we can enhance and update our facilities and better serve our communities. I’d like to thank our staff, residents, and the Reigate community for their support during this project,” said Chief Fire Officer Dan Quin.
Surrey County Council Backs the Build
The redevelopment is part of a wider push by Surrey County Council to bring all Surrey Fire and Rescue Service sites up to scratch — ensuring they’re ready to tackle today’s emergencies and tomorrow’s challenges.
