Bardstown’s new fire station is officially open, reports WDRB.com.

The original fire station will still be in service but will now be considered Fire House #2. Due to COVID-19, the grand opening was delayed despite the new station being in operation since last fall.

The fire station has six bedrooms, three bathrooms, three shower rooms and a designated weight room.

The new fire station is cutting response times and will help better serve the community.

Fire crews put out a fire that ravaged a mobile home in Chattaroy. Officials say that just before 1 p.m., smoke and flames came out the back of the trailer. The people inside got out safely, but the trailer appears to be a total loss. The fire is under control, and for crews on-scene, the immediate goal was to contain the flames and keep them from spreading to the nearby brush.
