Our third fire station for the City of Round Rock is this four bay station located in the Old Settler’s Park area. This 11,850 sf station houses the training division for the Fire Department and includes a meeting/training room large enough to accommodate 50 people. Plans for a training tower are included in a future addition.
During planning, the program was completed with input from all Fire Department Staff levels. This input included design decisions, station layout, and public versus private spaces. Details discussed were as general as room configuration and as specific as the number of electrical outlets to be included in each room.
This neighborhood station operates 24-hours a day and includes dormitories and kitchen facilities to accommodate three separate shift units. A weight/exercise room and outdoor recreation area provide “down time” activities. Large 14’ X 14’ bay doors on the drive-through bays support plans for a future ladder truck. One bay houses EMS services. This station utilizes the Plymovent air cleaning technology system in the apparatus bay. |
