new housing developments popping up throughout the municipality.
We also serve 12 parks located throughout the municipality, which
includes picnic areas, ball fields, nature trails, and play areas.
We also serve Franklin Regional School District
(2-Elementary Schools, Middle School and Senior High School).
Murrysville Medic One provides medical support to 4 volunteer fire
departments located throughout our service area.
Currently, Murrysville Medic One operates a fleet of 11 vehicles

from rough-terrain and special event stand bys, such as; 84 Gold
Classic, Mario Lemieux Celebrity Golf Tournament, Pittsburgh Senior
