6 Wicklow Garda Stations To Benefit From Upgrade And Refurbishment Works

In the order of €1.5 million announced for investment work in six garda stations across County Wicklow in 2024 and 2025

Bray Garda Station is one of six garda stations in Wicklow which will undergo upgrade works between now and the end of 2025.

In the order of €1.5 million is being invested by the Government to carry out refurbishments and upgrades of the Garda Stations in Tinahely, Shillelagh, Bray, Baltinglass, Wicklow town, and Greystones.

The work aims to deliver modern facilities which can be enjoyed by Garda members, staff and Reserve members while also making access to garda stations easier for the public.

 Taoiseach Simon Harris said:

“I’m delighted to be here today to join the Justice Minister and the Office of Public Works Minister to announce funding for building improvement projects at several garda stations across County Wicklow.

“This further investment underlines the Government’s commitment to ensuring An Garda Síochána has provision for the equipment, technology, facilities, fleet and personnel it needs to carry out vital policing work.

“I want to thank An Garda Síochána across the country and in County Wicklow who continue to work hard to protect their communities.”
