<p>The main gate access to the rear of West Denton Fire Station is currently defective therefore until further notice only use the pedestrian gate for foot access if parking a car at the rear of the compound.&nbsp; If using a bike, then retrieve the fob and access the station via the front remote door pad <a href="https://www.northumbriabloodbikes.org.uk/sites/default/files/library/published/Access%20Arrangements%20to%20West%20Denton%20Fire%20Station%20%28Hexham%20Bike%20only%29_1.pdf">(as detailed here)</a>.</p> <p>The old training tower is now demolished but further ground work is needed in preparation for the replacement tower to be installed so this arrangement is likely to remain in place for some time yet.&nbsp; Avoid using the rear yard where possible and always be aware of possible hazards during this ongoing&nbsp;construction phase</p> <p>Members should NOT retain the fob whilst on duty.&nbsp; It MUST be returned to the key safe in case other members require to access the station.&nbsp; This also reduces the risk of it being lost.</p> <p>Any queries/issues, please refer back to Paul Curran who is managing this issue on the Fleet Mgr&#39;s behalf.</p>
