A major operational challenge for the FDNY during cold weather is frozen hydrants caused by freezing temperatures. To prevent water from freezing in these hydrants across the city, the FDNY has specialized thawing apparatus trucks in each of the five boroughs.

Parking on fire hydrants is dangerous and illegal! 🚫 The FDNY responded to a 5-alarm fire in the Bronx early Monday morning. Multiple vehicles were blocking fire hydrants. Luckily, no one was seriously injured. But this selfish act could mean the difference between life and death. Don't do it. And if you choose to block a hydrant, prepare to pay big 💰 Parking on fire hydrants is punishable by up to $5,000 in fines. Don’t park on hydrants.

The FDNY is reminding New Yorkers that blocking a fire hydrant is ILLEGAL. Don’t do it. FDNY operations have been impeded by a blocked hydrant several times this year already. The most recent was earlier this month, at a 5-alarm fire in the Bronx. If you choose to park on a hydrant, prepare to pay up. In some cases, the Department’s Bureau of Fire Prevention will issue criminal court summonses that are punishable by up to a $5,000 fine.

Ladder 175 is a tractor-drawn aerial, also known as a Tiller truck. It’s operated by two chauffeurs—one driving the front and another steering the rear. There are 13 of these rigs across the city, strategically placed in neighborhoods with tight streets to help improve maneuverability. They respond to fires and emergencies just like any other ladder company. Let’s get to work!

On Friday, I visited the civilian and uniformed members in our Fleet Services and Medical Supply Unit. As a major snowstorm approaches, they work nonstop to keep emergency vehicles on the road and medical supplies flowing to keep New Yorkers safe.
