The new Watsonia Ambulance Station was built on a small site on a main busy road, which required the installation of additional traffic lights, to allow the Ambulances a speedy exit from the station when required.
The Ambulance Station is double storey and consists of 3 ambulance bays, medical storage, delivery room and bathroom on the lower level, and on the upper level all of the necessities for Paramedics being a general kitchen/dining area, resting rooms, office spaces, a study/training room, locker bays and bathrooms.
The new Ambulance Station will provide shorter waiting times for community members requiring emergency services.
