    Anyone know what the plans are for the Fire Station site once their new building is complete?
    In my opinion it would make a good site for a new Police Station for the town.

    Yup!

    On PG 63 of the Master Plan:

    Proposed Uses
    The site could be suitable for a range of uses
    including retail, leisure, pub/restaurant, offices
    and residential.

    One alternative site for the new Police Station could be next to the Law Courts. There will be a vacant site there later this year when the, erm, current Police Station is knocked down. Hmm, but then what to do with the Oriel site? Perhaps a mini overhaul into an Arts Hub/Cafe/playground using the £800k VVP funding? Hmm, but what to do with the Peoples Market? Could maybe use the £1.5m of capital funds available to refresh all 3 markets to bring in more income?

    Nope, silly idea.

    They could put the new police office in the Peoples Market it’s got it’s own carpark. The problem then it would be closed on Wednesday afternoon’s Sundays and bank holidays.

    Its a shame that the new fire station has been built near the hospital, somewhere near the Queensway would of been ideal. Think of the fuel savings on call outs to Hightown & QP!!
