FOI / 3838 / 2018 - Appliance Station Location

Thank you for your request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. I can confirm that Essex County Fire & Rescue Service does hold this information.

Please see below the answers to your request.

Initial request:

I love to identify the stations all the Appliances are from. In addition to the new number plaques to identify the stations, are the stations names written anyway on the Engine.

Final response:

The station no. plates have replaced the station name on the appliances. As the call sign of the vehicle is the main identifier as with Police and Ambulance service vehicles, it is not deemed necessary to include the station location anywhere on the vehicle.
