Massillon streetscape closure affects emergency routes and ambulances
Fire officials say Lincoln Way closure for Imagine Massillon streetscape did not lengthen patient transports, with Station 1 routing via Route 21 to Route 30 to Aultman or Mercy hospitals. Ambulances have traveled 4 to 16 miles to Canton hospitals, boosting revenue used to buy a new unit, while mileage should drop once Aultman Massillon opens. The plan includes replacing ambulances on a two year cycle and completing streetscape by Oct. 25.
