The Office of Public Works has been requested by An Garda Siochana to progress the reopening of six former Garda Stations. A brief of requirements for each Station was received by the end of February, 2018 and full technical assessments of each Station were completed by end April, 2018. The deliberative process between An Garda Siochana and OPW is continuing. Until detailed and definitive design is agreed in each case, fully costed estimates cannot be provided.
