exercises to improve operational readiness

As part of the preparations for future operations, the Koglerau volunteer fire brigade recently participated in an exercise with various fire departments. This took place on April 5, 2025 in the new health center on the Pöstlingberg. The scenario included a traffic accident in the underground car park, in which several people missed and one person was trapped. The high use of resources and the coordination of the voluntary fire departments Pöstlingberg, Gramastetten and Walding, which used a telescopic mast stage, illustrated the challenges in the event of a disaster.

The exercise required months of planning and organization to improve the responsiveness and safety of the emergency services. Thanks to everyone involved for their commitment and cooperation in order to continuously increase the quality of fire work. These exercises are an essential part of the training strategy that the fire brigade optimizes for quick and effective assistance.

Voluntary fire brigades, such as those in Koglerau, play a central role in society and contribute significantly to security. The cooperation and the exchange of experiences with partner weirs, such as the one from Kirchdorf im Wald, strengthens the community and ensures an effective knowledge transfer in the use of operations.
