Fuquay-Varina Fire Station 4 Ribbon Cutting - March 21, 2024

Fuquay-Varina established its first municipal fire station in 1951. Almost 75 years later, the Town celebrated the opening of Fire Station 4, located at 4821 Wade Nash Road, at a ribbon cutting on March 21.
Station 4 will feature three drive-through apparatus bays, dayrooms and bunk rooms, a kitchen, offices for administrative staff and ample storage space.
The new station also includes a separate decontamination building. Here, equipment and gear will undergo cleaning. At the same time, firefighters can promptly shower and change clothes following fire service calls to prevent harmful cancer-causing combustion products from entering the main facility. Designated decontamination facilities are just one of many initiatives that fire services leaders in Wake County and across the nation are implementing to help prevent firefighter occupational cancer.
