Plow truck caught fire in front of Hackett Middle School on Delaware Avenue
While the dedicated crews from the Department of General Services (DGS) were working tirelessly overnight to clear Albany's streets of snow and ice, an unexpected incident occurred when one of their plow trucks caught fire in front of Hackett Middle School on Delaware Avenue. The fire broke out as the truck was actively engaged in snow removal, but thanks to the swift response of the Albany Permanent Professional Firefighters Association Local 2007, the fire was quickly extinguished. Fortunately, no injuries were reported during the incident.
Despite the rapid efforts to contain the flames, the truck was severely damaged, leaving the city without one of its crucial snow removal vehicles. DGS crews, already stretched thin due to the ongoing winter storm, now face the added challenge of managing with one less plow truck. The situation highlights the unexpected obstacles that can arise during extreme weather events, but thanks to the quick actions of the firefighters and the resilience of the DGS teams, the city’s snow clearing efforts will continue as best as possible.
