Ten London fire stations closed at the end of the night shift (9:30am) this morning on Thursday, 9th of January. Among these stations was also the Westminster Fire Brigade Station.

The stations will be closed as part of the Fifth London Safety Plan (LSP), which sets out how the Brigade plans to keep Londoners safe over the next three years. 102 fire stations will continue to operate as normal providing London’s fire and rescue service. The Brigade needs to meet budget savings of £45 million over the next two years and the Plan will help it to meet £29 million of these savings.
