Estates Consultation: Dundee West Bell Street Annexe

Results updated 7 May 2025

Thank you for your interest and engagement in the Police Scotland estate and proposed changes.

In December 2023 we launched public consultations on the proposed disposal of a number of police stations including the annexe at West Bell Street.

Since launching the consultation, further work has been undertaken internally to review and consider what our wider estate requirements will be for the future.

A key component of Police Scotland’s three-year business plan is to deliver a more effective and sustainable estate.

We want an estate that enables modern policing, supports the health, safety and wellbeing of our people and the communities we serve and reduces long term operating costs.

In November 2024 the Scottish Police Authority endorsed Police Scotland’s Estates Masterplan, a 10-year estates transformation programme that sets out our strategic intent for each building and most importantly enables us to prioritise that work. Shortly after the Scottish Government indicated that funding would be provided to support its implementation.

Tayside, with a particular focus on Dundee, has been identified as a priority within the Police Scotland Estates Masterplan.

At this stage there is no confirmed estates solution for the West Bell Street annexe or for our other sites in Dundee. 

We are committed to creating an estate that is best for our officers and staff, meets our operational requirements and supports the communities that we serve.

We are grateful to the local community for taking the time to share their feedback.

Until a future estate solution is identified, we will continue to make any necessary repairs or investment to our buildings in Dundee, including at West Bell Street and the annexe, to ensure they continue to meet health and safety requirements.
