Construction Begins on New Fire Station in Reston

Construction on Station 25 in Reston has officially begun, according to the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department.

Steelwork began earlier this week on the $14.8 million project. Voters approved funding for the station via a bond referendum in 2015.

The project is expected to be completed in the summer of 2021. A temporary fire station has been set up at 1800 Cameron Glen Drive.

The old facility was demolished earlier this year to make way for a larger facility. The new station is double the size of the previous site and features two stories with administrative offices, a dayroom, kitchen, storage and bunk rooms.
