Peel Regional Police announce opening of first new division since 1987

The new 23 Division will open in Brampton this December to support the region's growing population.

By the Sauga 960 newsroom · · 1 min read

Peel Regional Police are launching 23 Division in Brampton, marking the organization's first divisional expansion in nearly 40 years. The new facility is scheduled to open to the public on December 12.

Located at the corner of Mississauga Road and Lagerfeld Drive, the building has the capacity to house up to 500 members. It will provide a central location for frontline patrol, specialized support services, and investigative teams.

The new division aims to improve policing services and increase the police presence in Brampton. It also features a community room that the public can use at no cost for engagement and crime prevention.

The building was designed to meet the Region of Peel's Net Zero Emissions Building Standard. It uses solar energy and includes electric vehicle charging stations, while using about 43 per cent less energy than a standard building.

Peel Regional Police say the opening of 23 Division is a historic milestone and a reflection of the Board's commitment to ensuring policing keeps pace with the growth of the community.

The Sir Robert Peel Centre, which houses 22 Division, will close later in December for a long-term redevelopment project. Police state there will be no disruption to services during this transition.

Residents can find more information about the new facility at peelpolice.ca/facilities.
