    Construction on Pickering's new Fire Headquarters is currently underway (located on Zents Drive), and expected to be complete by late 2022/early 2023.

    Upon full build-out, the 21,000-square-foot facility will have two floors with three tandem truck bays, which will hold a pumper, ladder truck, and the Platoon Chief response vehicle.

    The facility will be staffed with Fire Services, prevention, training, and administrative staff, as well as feature meeting facilities on the second floor.

    Geographically central to the future growth of Pickering, the new facility will allow crews to improve response times and service coverage across the City.

    Zents Drive also holds a special place in the hearts of many, as it was named in honour of firefighter Ray Zents, who passed away in 2003 from work-related cancer after dedicating 25 years to Pickering Fire Services.
