Laramie County Fire District #2 recently dedicated its new Fire Station No. 2., according to Chief Jason Caughey.

Located at 410 Horse Creek Road, the facility will greatly improve response times and staffing to the north and west growing population of Laramie County.​

The new station consists of four eighty-foot firetruck bays with a two-story mezzanine for equipment, storage and training.

It also features a residential area with a kitchen, day room and accommodations to sleep 12 firefighters as well as a walk-out basement that has additional room for multipurpose use, mechanical and IT equipment.

The project was put on the 6th penny ballot in 2017 and approved by voters.

Caughey says the original Station No. 2 at 8843 Yellowstone Road, originally built in 1975, will now house the District’s special operations vehicles and equipment.
