(West Fargo, ND) -- West Fargo Firefighters say their response times have improved.

The improvements are attributed to the addition of the new  headquarters station at 1201 10th Ave. E., as well as more full-time firefighters. The department says it has seen a 49% reduction in response times for fire calls and a 51% reduction in response times for EMS calls.  

The new modern headquarters station has full-time firefighters and trucks to respond to calls north of I-94. It also houses the department's administrative and community risk reduction divisions.
