A new tower ladder truck has been delivered to the Reading (PA) Fire Department, according to a report published by Berks Weekly.
The $1.7 million 93-foot ladder was originally scheduled to be completed and in October 2021 but its delivery was delayed due to supply chain issues, according to the report.
Once in service, the new aerial, built by Spartan Ladder Tower in Ephrata will replace a 75-foot 2003 unit, according to the newspaper article.
