4个Wiltshire消防站在削减预算后面临关闭,这有较长的反应时间和近100个就业机会损失的风险。 Four Wiltshire fire stations face closure amid budget cuts, risking longer response times and nearly 100 job losses.

作为Dorset & Wiltshire消防救援局节约成本努力的一部分,一个关键会议将决定四个Wiltshire消防站 -- -- Avon、Mere、Ramsbury和Wilton的布拉德福德消防站的命运。 A key meeting will decide the fate of four Wiltshire fire stations—Bradford on Avon, Mere, Ramsbury, and Wilton—as part of cost-saving efforts by the Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority. 由于政府资金减少和费用上涨,目前正在考虑关闭,预计将在6月作出最后决定。 Closures are under consideration due to declining government funding and rising costs, with a final decision expected in June. 风险评估评价因素,如服务人口和反应时间,如果获得批准,机组人员的工作量将增加,反应时间可能增加11分钟。 A risk assessment evaluated factors like population served and response times, and if approved, crew workloads would increase and response times could rise by up to 11 minutes. 当局尚未开始正式协商,但这一行动可能会影响近100个消防员的工作。 The authority has not yet started formal consultation, but the move could affect nearly 100 firefighter jobs.
