New fire engine
for Sidcup
Sidcup fire station now has a second fire engine to improve response times to fires and incidents in the area.
The additional vehicle will
mean more firefighters will be based at the station to cover the four-watch system.
The move is part of a programme to further
improve the Brigade’s overall response across
the capital by moving ten fire engines to different stations around London.
But before the
move to Sidcup from Greenwich fire station
could take place, extension works were needed
to accommodate the extra fire engine.
As well as room for an additional fire engine
the extended and refurbished station will have
additional resting and lecture facilities.
New
solar panels and water recycling facilities installed at the station will also help the Brigade
meet its own stringent energy targets.
Bexley Borough Commander Cyril O’Brien
said: “As well as helping to ensure the safety of
our residents in Sidcup and the surrounding
area the extra staff will increase the amount of
community safety work our firefighters can
carry out in the borough to prevent incidents
happening in the first place.
”
Jobs for builders
The empty job centre in Sidcup will become a
mix of residential and commercial units now
the planners have given the go ahead.
The committee reversed its previous decision
and accepted it.
The application was for three
commercial units and 14 flats and extending
from three storeys to four.
Inadequate parking,
refuse and bad stacking of flats i.
e.
living rooms
over bedrooms were all accepted!
BROKEN BUS
CAUSES CHAOSTraffic works in Faraday avenue and a broken
down bus (Wednesday 23rd September) on the
bridge at Foots Cray Lane opposite the cemetery
created one of Sidcup s worst traffic jams in a
decade.
Solid queues of traffic went back as far as
the town centre.
One driver told the Chronicle the bus blocked
the road for more than two hours delaying journeys that would normally take five minutes to
up to half an hour.
Ambulances and police on
emergency calls could not access many roads because of the weight of traffic.
