Southern Platte Fire Protection District’s Velocity 100’ heavy-duty aerial platform has a true clean cab including vinyl seating and aluminum treadplate flooring, both providing an easy wipe down. This also includes having both EMS compartments accessible on the outside and strategically placing the air packs away from the cab to help keep carcinogens away after fighting a fire.
