Plymouth officials welcomed the Northville City Fire Department’s new aerial bucket truck.
The $807,423 truck, a 2015 Rosenbauer Cobra with a boom that extends up to 101 feet, was a joint purchase between the cities of Plymouth and Northville. The NCFD has been providing firefighting and emergency medical service in Plymouth since the beginning of 2012.
The truck, a demonstrator model, replaces a 35-year-old aerial truck. It will be based in Plymouth, but City Manager Paul Sincock said firefighters will be training on it in both communities.
The truck came from the Rosenbauer facility in South Dakota, where some equipment extras included in the purchase had been added and it had been detailed and inspected.
