Show Notes
Lawrence Douglas County Fire Medical is constructing a new Station six in northwest Lawrence to enhance response times, despite existing stations handling fewer calls. The focus is on meeting a four-minute arrival goal for the first engine on scene, driven by city growth and rising demands. The new station will cover areas currently outside the four-minute coverage map and prepare for future development. Incidents increased by 22% from 2021 to 2025, with emergency medical services being the majority. Retired chief Shaun Coffey emphasizes the importance of quick response times for saving lives and limiting damage.
