The project for a new Garda Station at Bailieborough, Co. Cavan includes conservation of the existing former National Irish Bank building and the construction of a new three storey over basement building to the rear on a site located on the town’s main street.
The purchase of a neighbouring property by the Office of Public Works (OPW) allows the provision of extra secure parking spaces and safer processing of those being arrested. Plans to facilitate this were approved by Garda Estate Management and Planning Permission for the works was granted in September 2023.
The Contractor has submitted costings and timescales for these works which are currently being considered by the OPW.
