The OPW will seek a suitable site for a new Garda Station in the Castletroy/ Annacotty area of Limerick when the Business Case process is complete and the long term requirements of An Garda Síochána in the area are confirmed.

A Business Case is required to comply with the provisions of the Infrastructure Guidelines where it is considered that the acquisition of a property is required. It is the responsibility of the Sponsoring Agency, in this case An Garda Síochána, to prepare this Business Case. An Garda Síochána are preparing an initial Business Case for nine sites, including Castletroy, throughout the country and the Office of Public Works have been engaging with them in this regard over the last number of months.
