The City of Batavia, New York, has officially opened its new police station, marking a significant step in enhancing local law enforcement operations. The facility, located at 31 Bank Street, will serve as the central hub for all police activities starting Monday, December 8.
Residents can access the station’s lobby during weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.. The city has announced that due to construction efforts, Alva Place will be closed from Bank Street to the Batavia City Center parking lot until the work is fully completed. For those visiting, alternative parking is available in the Batavia City Center parking lot.
The police department has confirmed that its phone number will remain unchanged. Residents can continue to reach the non-emergency line at (585) 345-6350. A ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house will be organized at a later date, allowing community members to familiarize themselves with the new facility and its offerings.
This move is part of Batavia’s ongoing commitment to safety and community engagement. By consolidating operations into one modern location, the department aims to improve its response times and overall effectiveness in serving residents.
The new police station represents not just a physical relocation but a renewed focus on fostering trust and communication between law enforcement and the Batavia community.
