New multi-million Fire Service complex to be completed by April

The Barbados Fire Service and Emergency Service Complex at The Pine, St. Michael, is expected to be completed in April 2025.

The initial cost of the project was $30 million; however, due to supply chain disruptions and structural modifications to improve storm resilience, the cost has risen by $3.5 million.

Minister of Home Affairs Wilfred Abrahams toured the facility on Tuesday with contractors and fire officials and expressed satisfaction with the progress of the construction. (SB)
