Residents in Boyle County will benefit from a new fire station.

Fire station #9 recently opened in Boyle County, improving fire protection and emergency services for the northeast end.

As an added benefit, residents in that area will now enjoy lower insurance rates, as their fire rating drops from class 9 to class 5.

The Boyle County Fire Department posted on social media, "Our newest addition to Boyle County Fire! Thanks to everyone that made this possible, and the work everyone involved has put in."

Fire Station #9 is located at 343 Walter Reed Rd, Danville.
