A presentation made to Moncton City Council suggests that a new RCMP facility won’t open until 2024, rather than the expected 2023 opening.
The original schedule planned for a construction tender to be issued this spring, with ground being broke by July. However, with designs and documents only being finished recently, Elaine Aucoin, Director of Environmental Planning and Management, says starting by the summer is not realistic, “we feel that we don’t have sufficient time to do a proper tender and start construction this summer.”
Instead, a new timeline will see a call for tender occur in November, with the contract awarded in January 2022 and the start of construction in the following spring.
