Medford, OR – The Medford Fire Department is marking one month since the Emergency Communications of Southern Oregon (ECSO 911) completed the transition to a new regional public safety radio system on October 6.
The upgrade is designed to provide more reliable radio coverage and clearer communications for first responders throughout Jackson County, including Medford Fire crews.
The department said a project of this scale required years of planning and collaboration, thanking ECSO, Jackson County voters, the City of Medford and regional public safety partners for helping make the transition possible.
Reliable radio communications are essential for coordinating emergency responses, allowing first responders and agencies to stay connected while handling incidents across the region.
