The facility allows for a collaborative approach to emergency situations, boasting a shared emergency response centre, where all services can combine to provide a consolidated response to emergency situations. In non-emergency situations, the facilities allow each service to operate independently to carry out day-to-day duties and activities.

The Tas Fire Service facility has been equipped to house both career firefighting and also volunteer operations. The SES facility provides a large operations centre and substantial gathering areas for large numbers of volunteers when required. The grounds comprise separate storage facility for both Police and SES and there is a large car park and wash bay area which also doubles as an outdoor operations area when required.

The buildings offer a high-level of insulation and acoustic value making the building quieter and more comfortable to work in. Specialised bi-folding doors to the fire engine bays open quickly to maximise response times for emergency vehicles, and a unique vehicle exhaust system fitted in the engine bays cater for extraction of appliance exhaust inside the facility.

A Vergola open/close roof system has been installed adding versatility and functionality to the shared communal outdoor space.

A state-of-the-art operational emergency services response facility delivered for the growing communities of Sorell and Tasmanian Peninsula areas.
