The North Side Police Station, which was badly damaged in an alleged arson attack last July, is set to be refurbished for resumption of operations.
The RCIPS has issued a tender for contractors to do structural repairs on the fire-ravaged building.
The tender, posted on government’s public procurement portal, Bonfire, is seeking non-binding quotations for the refurbishment works, the deadline for which is 29 March.
According to the tender documents, “significant damage is flagged to the Front (right) of the property – primarily to the roof – requiring replacement and remediation”.
The station, located on Hutland Road, suffered extensive fire damage after an alleged arson attack last July.
No one was in the building at the time fire broke out shortly before 2am on 31 July 2023.
Dave Richard Ebanks, 55, of Rum Point Drive in North Side, was arrested on Wednesday, 2 Aug. 2023, for the alleged arson attack at the station.
He has pleaded not guilty and that matter is scheduled to go before the Grand Court on 2 July 2024.
The RCIPS has declined comment on plans for the station while the tender period is active.
North Side police officers have been operating at the East End police station since the fire.
