(dhob). The persistent snow from the weekend also left its mark in Bad Salzuflen. The masses pile up in the streets of the spa town and cause major problems for motorists. Due to the special situation, the fire brigade is temporarily increasing its staff. The fire station on Oerlinghauser Straße will be reinforced with additional staff in the operations center until Monday morning (February 8th, 2021). The fire station in Holzhausen is also occupied. The voluntary unit stationed there supports the rescue service of the Lippe district in its operations in Bad Salzuflen. “As soon as an ambulance is alerted, the fire brigade also drives us out for safety,” explains Ralf Mensenkamp, city fire inspector in Bad Salzuflen. In this way, the fire brigade can provide short-term support as soon as, for example, an ambulance gets stuck due to the weather. Fortunately, that happened until the evening. Apart from that, the Bad Salzufler fire brigade has been called to rather smaller tasks to date. Fallen site fences had to be secured and erected twice, and once a fallen tree blocked the “Seligenwörden” road. The 20 meter long ash fell on Sunday night due to the strong wind. A driver did not notice the tree in time and slipped his car into the obstacle. Nobody was injured, but property damage occurred. The fire brigade had to provide local help on Sunday afternoon. The roof of the “Phoenix Contact Arena” in Lemgo had to be cleared of the snow masses on it. The Lippe district therefore requested the turntable ladders of the full-time workers. – To ensure fire protection in the spa town itself, the telescopic articulated mast of the Salzuflen fire fighting group has been temporarily stationed at the fire station.
If the situation changes, the Bad Salzuflen fire brigade’s Twitter channel will provide regular information.
