Fire protection for Yarralumla – hydrants on our bush boundaries
Did you know that there are numerous fire hydrants located around our suburb? The familiar red fire hydrants are largely a thing of the past. These days hydrants are in-ground and identified only by nondescript square metal panels on verges by the road. The location of these hydrants should be identified by a blue reflector in the centre of the road and/or the letters FH on the kerb. Both the FH and the blue reflector show which side of the road the hydrant is located.
