Huron County Council Approves The Purchase Of Two Ambulances For 2025

by Bob Montgomery

Huron County's Director of Emergency Services says the county will be purchasing two new ambulances this year.

Jeff Horseman says the total cost for both ambulances will be a little over 647-thousand dollars. He says they'll be purchased from Demers Ambulances of Quebec. The vehicles they're replacing are about six years old and have between three and four-thousand kilometres on them, so they're ready to be replaced.

Horseman says it's critical for them to make sure the vehicles they have are operational and well maintained so they don't break down on the road. He adds, they've being purchasing ambulances from Demers for the last fifteen years and they've had very good success with them so council recommends they continue to buy their vehicles from them.
