This page will continue to be updated for the duration of the project.

Construction of a combined public safety building commenced in December 2020 on the site of the former Town Hall at 26 Bryant Street. The new building will house the staff and equipment of Fire, Police, and Dispatch departments. It replaces two older Town buildings: the police station built in 1962 at 600 High Street and the fire station built in 1952 at 436 Washington Street. The new public safety building is scheduled to open in early 2023. (The final move-in schedule and opening will be shared when available.)

Final project cost will be $55 million, which is the guaranteed maximum price the Town will pay under the Construction-Manager-at-Risk contract structure.

The 84,000-square-foot building, which includes structured parking for emergency and staff vehicles, is scheduled for completion in May 2023.
