PROJECT SUCCESSES | The project incorporating both stations benefitted from lessons learned in preceding Fire Station projects, and improvements were incorporated for each subsequent build. Continuous improvement was achieved by incorporating lessons learned from builds of Fire Stations 7, 2 and 6. Use of familiar architectural design allowed for an efficient construction period for Fire Station #2. Neighbourhood and employee concerns regarding lights, speed of trucks and other impacts of the station were addressed successfully through public open houses at Fire Station #2. Project staging was achieved successfully with the adjacent St. Bernard school construction including construction traffic routing. Snake-barricading fencing and approaches were implemented before construction in order to allow for the removal of as many snakes as possible from the site and to prevent snakes from re-entering the site. Over 70 snakes were relocated from the site prior to construction. All workers deployed to the Fire Station No. 5 site were required to be trained on protocol for species at risk sightings. The project has been completed with a budget surplus of $XXX. |
