Major boost for community safety and comfort with new police headquarters receiving planning approval
by AHR
Planning approval has been granted for the new bluelight headquarters which will sit within our Project Anchor Enterprise and Innovation Hub site and play a vital role in the broader regeneration of Scunthorpe.
Its modern and thoughtful design promises to strengthen the safety, security and wellbeing of people in the community and will ensure that the local police force can deliver services more efficiently and effectively.
Beyond improving its operational effectiveness, the three-storey building will prioritise the wellbeing of the 250 police officers and staff expected to use it.
Strategically located at the heart of Scunthorpe, the headquarters aims to establish a strong police presence, improving security and accessibility for residents and visitors. The building’s exterior will complement the nearby accommodation block, contributing to a cohesive urban landscape.
To reduce its construction costs and environmental impact, we took advantage of the existing infrastructure on the site, repurposing existing materials to bring the project together.
We’re delighted that the scheme will progress, which promises significant benefits for the local community through improved policing facilities and contributions to the town’s ongoing regeneration.
