Wichelen, a town in Belgium, is building a new fire station. The city has already bought the land and is building a road to the new station. According to the officials, the old fire station is close to schools, which isn’t safe because fire trucks are always going in and out.
According to the mayor, the old fire station isn’t good enough. They’re going to use the old fire station for something else, like parking or more school space. The town is getting bigger, so they need more space. He mentioned that the new fire station will help keep people safe and make the city better.
Our current fire station is already quite old,
