THAMES Valley Police is relocating its Reading Police Station as part of a move to “modernise” its infrastructure.
TVP has announced that it is moving operations from the current site in Castle Street to a new facility in Atlantic House, Imperial Way.
The front counter at the Castle Street police station will remain open to the public until Tuesday, November 26, and all public enquiries will be handled at the new location from Wednesday, November 27.
Atlantic House is well served by public transport, with several bus routes operating from Reading town centre, including the 600 Park and Ride, the 6 Emerald, and the 50 Greenwave services.
The Mereoak Park & Ride also stops on Imperial Way, providing further access options.
Parking is available on-site at Atlantic House, including designated disabled spaces, however, availability is limited.
Visitors can find additional parking nearby but are advised to observe local restrictions and any applicable charges.
Superintendent Colin Hudson, operational commander for the relocation of Reading Station, said: “It is a real privilege to lead the work that has gone into the relocation of Reading Police Station.
“Castle Street has been a main operating base for nearly half a century, and this move reflects the force’s commitment to investing in community policing and has involved a range of departments working together to complete this major project.
“We look forward to welcoming the public to the new location and continuing to provide high-quality service to the communities of West Berkshire.”
