Wichita officials broke ground on a second new fire station Friday. The station will be located near Harry and Greenwich Rd., on the far east side of town.

Estimated to cost $2.6 million, Fire Station No. 20 is one of three fire stations approved by the Wichita City Council during the 2007 budget process and expected to open between December and February 2009.

Features include individual living quarters, separate male and female locker rooms and a community meeting room that seats up to 50 and serves as an operations center. Initial operations include four staffers and one Engine.

Earlier in the week officials broke ground near 21st and 135th Street West on another new fire station.
