Rothesay police station front counter closure as part of planned refurbishment
The front counter facility at Rothesay police station will be temporarily closed for essential refurbishments on Monday, 23 June, 2025 to Friday, 11 July, 2025. Members of the public will not be able to access the station during this time.
Area Commander, James McArthur said: “I appreciate that closing the front counter may cause some inconvenience. Officers will continue to be on patrol around Bute and we would encourage anyone to approach them with any issues. During the closure, the public can contact Police Scotland by calling 101 for non-emergencies and general enquiries, and 999 in the event of an emergency.”
“As mentioned in our previous communications, this work forms part of Police Scotland’s Estates Masterplan which aims to modernise buildings and ensure they support effective policing. The police station in Rothesay serves not only the town but is our base for policing the entire island.
“The building is old and the current layout isn’t ideal for modern policing. Investing in the station will improve the working conditions for the officers and staff who work there and ensure that officers can continue to use it as an effective base to serve the island for many years to come.”
