FIRE AND AMBULANCE COMMUNICATIONS CENTRE MOVING TO NEW SITE
*****
THE FIRE AND AMBULANCE COMMUNICATIONS CENTRE FOR HONG KONG ISLAND IN THE NEW RODNEY BLOCK COMPOUND WILL BE MOVING TO ANOTHER NEW SITE ON DECEMBER 17, 1974.
THE NEW SITE IS SITUATED IN HARBOUR ROAD, WAN CHAI, WHERE A FIRE STATION, DESIGNED TO REPLACE THE HARCOURT ROAD FIRE STATION, IS NEARING COMPLETION.
THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A YEAR THAT THE COMMUNICATIONS CENTRE HAS HAD TO MOVE. BEFORE NOVEMBER LAST YEAR, IT WAS LOCATED AT A SITE IN THE OLD ROYAL NAVY DOCKYARD, WHICH WAS EVENTUALLY DEMOLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROJECT TO RE-ALIGN QUEENSWAY.
