While the main construction works to the Garda Station building have been completed, commissioning of certain mechanical and electrical installations has not yet been demonstrated to the required standards.
The Office of Public Works (OPW) has been actively engaging with the contractor on this issue and the contractor has advised OPW that it expects that all of the outstanding commissioning should be concluded by the end of this week which will allow the building to be handed back to An Garda Síochána immediately thereafter. The full re-opening of the Station is an operational matter for An Garda Síochána.
