Surrey County Council is investing in the rebuild of Chobham Fire Station to update and modernise facilities, and to adapt to the evolving needs of our workforce. The redevelopment will improve our capacity to ensure community safety and address current and emerging risks.
Chief Fire Officer at Surrey Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS), Dan Quin, said: "We are delighted that work will soon be underway to make the necessary improvements to Chobham Fire Station, thanks to the investment of Surrey County Council. The proposed relocation means we can continue to deliver services to the local communities in Chobham and Woking. We will monitor the relocation to ensure that it is working well and having a positive impact on communities."
