Peel police have broken ground on a new operational support facility, slated to open in 2027.
An increase in non-emergency calls to Peel Region's 911 service have prompted the police force to renew public education on when it's acceptable to call 911. A Peel Police shoulder patch is seen in Mississauga, Ont., on Saturday, July 1, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Arlyn McAdoreyOfficials from Peel Region officially launched the construction process on Wednesday morning at the site of the future facility, located at 8100 Mississauga Road in Brampton.
The project is part of the future development of a fifth police division in Brampton, due to the region’s substantial population growth over the past decade. Between 2016 and 2021, the city grew by over 60,000 people, marking population growth of approximately 10.6 per cent. The region is expected to be home to close to one million people by 2051, with an estimated growth of 350,000 people in the next 10 years.
“We know this community deserves a modern approach to policing,” Shearer said. “There are women and men in the communications centre and frontline, and 80 per cent of the time, they’re responding to calls for service for things like food insecurity, precarious housing, mental health, addictions, youth-related issues, older adults that need support, vulnerable populations. And on top of that, we have some really significant urban pressures in the form of crime.
