The closure is to enable construction work to be carried out
on the new City Divisional Police Station.
The new police station is of a modified standard design similar
to the North Paint Divisional Headquarters and Police Station..
It will comprise one multi-storey block, two single-storey blooks
and a compound.
The multi-storey block, 18 floors, is to be built on a site of
about 27,000 square feet. It will house the normal police operational
and administrative offices, barrack accommodation, recreational facilities
and married quarters for inspectors.
The low blocks are planned to accommodate, among other things,
dog kennels, stores, vehicle parking and servicing bays.
Piling work will begin next month. This will be followed by
construction work which is expected to be completed by the middle of 1976.
