Clonmel's Mayor, Michael Murphy, says he is delighted to confirm that work on the proposed new Clonmel Garda Station is going to tender today.
"The works involve the construction of a new Garda Community Engagement HQ for the Tipperary South Area in Clonmel. The completed project will face onto a new public plaza and is an integral part of the proposed Kickham Barracks masterplan," says Cllr Murphy.
"The construction of a Garda Community Engagement HQ for the Tipperary South Area in Clonmel will be a great boost, not just for the town of Clonmel, but also the surrounding communities in south Tipperary and beyond. This project is an important part of our efforts to create stronger, safer communities across south Tipperary.
"The new Garda Community Engagement HQ for the Tipperary South Area in Clonmel consists of a two, three and four-storey building that will face onto a new public plaza. The purpose-built garda station will provide modern accommodation and facilities that will assist members of An Garda Síochána in the delivery of their important work.
"This project has been a priority for me and my (Fine Gael) colleagues, Senator Garret Ahearn and Cllr John Fitzgerald for some time. Once completed, I have no doubt that this new state-of-the-art Garda Community Engagement HQ for the Tipperary South Area will enhance the Garda presence in the town, while facilitating the policing infrastructure capacity for Clonmel and the surrounding areas.
"This is such a great boost for our team at Clonmel Garda station and I want to thank them for their patience for the past few years. They deserve a quality working environment that meets the needs of modern-day policing.
"Finally, I would like to thank Minister for Justice, Helen McEntee, and Minister of State with responsibility for the OPW, Kieran O'Donnell for making this happen.
"I've no doubt that this will be catalyst for further investments in Clonmel and south Tipperary in the coming years".
