HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Dirt work is underway for the new Hutchinson fire station. The new station, which will be located at 23rd and Main on the Kansas State Fairgrounds, will replace the current station at 20th and Main.
The station will have direct access to Main Street and will become the main fire station in the city. The station is usually one of the busiest in the city and makes most, if not all, calls to the fairgrounds. The cost of the station is in excess of $5 million and should be completed by May 2023.
The city has already entered into a 99 year lease agreement with the fair for the new fire station at $1 per year.
