The best firefighter training site in Europe is starting to take shape!



AERIAL photographs have been taken which show the progress of building work at the site of the new GMFRS Training and Safety Centre in Bury.
The spectacular images were taken by the GMFRS Air Unit, which flew over the site as part of a recent exercise involving a local crew and members of the GMFRS Technical Response Unit.
The images show work on the row of terraced houses - Fire Street, steel work for the collapsed structure, foundations for the commercial property and the steel frame of the multi –rig, which will help firefighters train for incidents in high-rise buildings.
As you can see in the pictures below work is moving at quite a pace on the site, which will be one of the best training sites for firefighters in Europe and probably the World!
