A preliminary design for the new Station, which envisages retention and modernisation of the existing structure, is currently being prepared, and will shortly be submitted to the Garda authorities for approval. It is anticipated that, following detailed planning, an early Planning submission will be lodged, with a view to commencing works on site in the second half of 2009.

In the meantime, suitable temporary accommodation has been identified close to Clonark, and arrangements are in train for An Garda Síochána to occupy this accommodation, pending the provision of the permanent Garda Station.
