The Kerry Fire Service is to get two new fire appliances.
The Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage Darragh O’Brien announced almost €21 million (€20.8 million) for the provision of 40 new Class B fire appliances across the country.
Class B fire appliances are the first appliances mobilised to all incidents; they generally carry 1,800 litres of water, have a main pump built in and carry a range of equipment including hoses, ladders and breathing and cutting equipment.
