Baytown Police & Fire Vehicle Service Center
A
new
31,000
SF
vehicle
maintenance
building
for
both
Police
and
Fire
mechanics
will
be
built
as
part
of
phase
one
of
the
of
the
multi-phase
public
safety
campus.
This
project
also
included
3
other
vehicle
storage
buildings totaling an additional 13,000 square feet.
The
current
police
mechanics
building
had
to
move
before
the
new
public
safety
building
can
be
built.
By
splitting
these
buildings
into
a
separate
project
with
its
own
GMP
and
fast
tracking
the
construction
documents the overall project was able to save 6 months of construction time.
The
new
combined
vehicle
service
building
is
over
a
football
field
long
and
40
feet
high
at
its
tallest
to
allow
the
fire
trucks
to
raise
ariels
to
allow
cabs
to
tilt
to
access
engines.
It
is
a
pre-engineered
metal
building
designed
to
withstand
160
mph
hurricane
force
with
CMU
interiors
for
durability.
It
is
split
into
two
large
climate-controlled
service
areas
one
for
fire
and
one
for
police
which
are
drive
through
bays.
These
bays
area
serviced
by
a
central
fluids
delivery
system
that
dispense
Oil
and
other
fluids
at
a
metered
pump
to
each
service
position.
Compressed
air
is
and
power
is
available
from
above
at
each
station
as
well
at
other
areas throughout the facility.
