OPW are currently undertaking the building of a Divisional Headquarters on behalf of An Garda Síochána (AGS) at Gurteenroe, Macroom, Co Cork
The accommodation is provided in a 2, 3 & 4 storey building around a secure courtyard with adjacent secure car parking on a green field site. The OPW are preparing tender documentation for Site Works and the Main Contractor and prequalification process for the Main Contractor is underway. The OPW are inputting as required, into the preparation of the Public Spending Code Preliminary Business Case being organised by AGS. Site works are anticipated to commence in Q3 2024.
As the project will be tendered soon, it is deemed commercially sensitive to release the cost estimate of the project at this stage. We will update the Deputy on costs once the contract has been awarded.
