The project aims to strengthen the fire brigades of Central Macedonia with new modern equipment (aquifers/special fire trucks, appliances and tools). These are equipment suitable for the prevention and repression of forest and other fires, as well as to deal with earthquakes and take action to assist and rescue other incidents of natural and technological disasters throughout the region. The significant qualitative and quantitative upgrading of existing fire-rescue equipment will support decisively the intended improvement of the service provided by the Fire Brigade within the Region of Central Macedonia. In any case, the improvement of the effectiveness of fire rescue operations, as well as the strengthening of measures to reduce and/or prevent major natural and technological disasters depends on the adequate, modern and reliable means of intervention, which are operationally available for the needs of the Region.
