New Perth County EMS headquarters to be built in Stratford

The future of the former FRAM site is beginning to take shape.

Perth County will be building their new EMS headquarters on a portion of the property on Douro Street.

Rockwood says the decision to build in that spot is almost a matter of “right place, right time”:

Construction on the new EMS headquarters isn’t expected to begin until next year.
