THE Fire & Rescue NSW Academy to be relocated to a six-hectare site on Mamre Road, at Erskine Park, is expected to employ around 150 staff, and see up to 200 additional firefighters and trainees on site on any given day. The new state-of-the-art firefighter training facility is expected to be completed by the end of 2017.
