  Aidan, you realize AT-8 isn’t downtown right? State and Michigan aren’t in their still. Also, they can’t practice every viaduct in the city to make sure they are good to go. AT-8 could respond citywide.

  Unfortunately that’s impractical because the fire department doesn’t decide where the calls are at.

  Aerial Tower 8 crashed into a viaduct about a month ago. The front of the main was damaged. The rig will get some work done and it might send it back to the manufacturer to get a new main installed. Because of its size, They should only go through the main streets like Michigan, State, Halsted, Racine, Ashland, etc. They should have driven it more responsibly.
