Texas A&M begins construction on first responder training facility in Bryan

VIDEO: The Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service (TEEX) has been training first responders and public service professionals for around 30 years. Now, TEEX is breaking ground on its new 86-acre Public Service Training Complex. The one-stop training complex is unlike other facilities like Disaster City, because it works to bring different agencies together for real life training. โ€œIf you think about public safety, they tend to train independent of one another. So, law enforcement trains with law enforcement, fire with fire, EMS and public works or utilities do the same thing. The public service training complex brings them all together because in the real world, that is the way we respond,โ€ explained TEEX Agency Director David Coatney.
