The new Garda Station in Bailieboro will be completed in the next two months.
Minister Kevin Boxer Moran confirmed that project will be completed in April of 2026.
He said the date for the opening of the station is an operational matter for An Garda Síochána. The confirmation came about following a parliamentary question by local Minister Niamh Smyth on the issue this week.
The project for a new Garda Station includes the 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.
A significant portion of these works are now complete. The purchase of a neighbouring property by the Office of Public Works (OPW) allowed for the provision of extra secure parking spaces and safer processing of those being arrested.
Minister Moran said from April onwards Gardai will commence occupation of the multi million euro state of the art building on the Main Street of the town.
