New paramedic station coming to West Muskoka
On May 22, 2024, the District of Muskoka marked a significant milestone with the groundbreaking for the Glen Orchard Paramedic Station on Muskoka Road 118 West.
The new station, strategically located to improve response times in West Muskoka, will replace the existing Port Carling Paramedic Station and become fully operational in 2025.
Construction is currently underway, focusing on incorporating energy-efficient systems and green building practices to support the District's environmental goals and enhance the facility's functionality and resilience.
