Peterborough Police Open Satellite Office At Simcoe Street Bus Terminal

The Peterborough Police Service has opened a satellite office located at the Simcoe Street Transit Terminal in downtown Peterborough.

“Our downtown office will increase our visibility in the downtown core, increase security at the bus terminal and also allow for even more engagement opportunities with our community and stakeholders,” says Inspector John Lyons, Operations Division, Peterborough Police Service.

The office will be used primarily by officers working in Area 1, which includes the downtown core. It will also provide more meeting space for the Service when hosting meetings with community partners or stakeholders.

A TV display will be located outside the office that will broadcast a wide range of police-related messaging and information, including crime prevention tips, upcoming events and recruiting or volunteer opportunities.

The office will not be staffed 24/7/365, so members of the public are asked to not use the office to report an incident and not attend if they need police assistance. If the public require police assistance or need to report a crime, they are asked to call 9-1-1 in an emergency or in a non-emergency call the Service’s non-emergency line at 705-876-1122.
