New fire hall in ’08
The Woodruff Fire Department
moved into its new fire hall on Highway
47 in 2008, part of a $2.5 million project
that involved construction of a town
hall/police station and a separate town
shop/fire station.
The complex is located at 1418 Highway 47, about six blocks east of the intersection with Highway 51 in downtown Woodruff.
Timmons said the department went
from a building that offered four bays
for five trucks to a 4,480-square-foot facility that has eight larger bays for its
growing fleet of rescue equipment.
“Now we’ve got six doors and a lot
more room for moving around equipment. We built this to handle the department’s needs way into the future,”
he said.
Timmons said the station features
an automatic exhaust-handling ventilation system that kicks in “at the
slightest hint of fumes.” The station
also has a meeting room and full shower facilities. ?
