A major infrastructure boost has been confirmed for the Dubbo region of Australia with the unveiling of the design for a new A$35 million NSW Police Force training facility.
The training facility will be built adjacent to the Rural Fire Service (RFS) Training Academy at the Dubbo City Regional Airport, and is on track for completion in December 2022. Assistant Commissioner Greentree said the Active Armed Offender course will include interactive simulation-based scenarios, designed to build skills for officers responding to a wide-range of events.
Nationals Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders was joined by the Minister for Police and Emergency Services David Elliott, and NSW Police Force’s Western Region Commander Assistant Commissioner Brett Greentree to unveil the official design for the facility.
“Today’s design reveal further demonstrates the NSW Government’s 2019 election commitment to invest $100 million for police property capital works state-wide,” Saunders said. “The facility will also add to the growing emergency services hub taking shape at the Dubbo airport precinct. The $23 million NSW Rural Fire Service training academy became our COVID Command Centre during the recent outbreak and will expand to include a $5.6 million RFS Aviation Centre of Excellence. This new police facility will help all agencies work even more closely in future emergencies.”
