Petition details
Save the Isle of Dogs Police Station
The Mayor of London's Office for Policing And Crime Office
(MOPAC) has announced the sale of the Isle of Dogs police station
later this year
This would mean local Police officers having to commute in from
Bethnal Green Police Station each day, wasting 40 to 60 minutes a
day (Limehouse Police Station is only used by SCO19 firearms
command, not local Tower Hamlets Police)
That if the sale cannot be stopped that the Council fund a
replacement using s106 or CIL monies or help to provide alternative
local facilities for the Police (& the Police Cadets) to use as
a local base.
This Petition ran from 22/09/2021 to 03/11/2021 and has now finished.
1140 people signed this Petition.
Council response
The council’s response to the below petition is that while
the closure of station is a decision for the Police our asset
managers are actively exploring whether any premises on the Island
could offer an alternative base.
Kind regards

Tower Hamlets Council
