Station 51 is located in the downtown area of Tigard and is home to one of the three ladder trucks in the District and our Technical Rescue Team. The Technical Rescue Team is comprised of eight firefighters per shift who are highly-trained in extensive rescue operations (e.g., confined space, rope rescue, vehicle extrication, entrapment, structural collapse, etc.). While Station 51’s immediate response area includes single and multi-family dwellings, industrial, and commercial structures in the Tigard area, because they are a specialty team, they respond to emergency incidents throughout TVF&R’s 210 square mile service area.
