A new modern police station has been commissioned at Timehri, East Bank Demerara, marking an important step in improving law enforcement services for surrounding communities (Guyana Police Force, Department of Public Information). The facility will serve the #3 Sub-Division, which is the largest within Regional Police Division 4B. This extensive jurisdiction stretches from Garden of Eden to Moblissa and is home to more than 35,000 residents. It also includes several high-traffic hubs such as the South Dakota Circuit, Splashmins Resort, Azisa Akuza Creek, and the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (Guyana Police Force).
The new station is designed to enhance operational efficiency, improve working conditions for officers, and support the delivery of faster and more reliable security services. Law enforcement officials have emphasised that while the sub-division experiences moderate crime levels, certain hotspots such as Timehri North and Loo Creek require strengthened policing. The modern infrastructure is expected to address these needs through better response times, expanded operational capacity, and increased community presence (Department of Public Information).
Beyond serving as a base for crime prevention and investigation, the station is also viewed as a symbol of modernisation and commitment to public service. The commissioning of the facility underscores ongoing efforts to invest in the country’s security infrastructure. This approach is intended not only to improve safety and stability but also to foster greater confidence between communities and the police (Department of Public Information).
Authorities have pointed out that the project represents a strategic investment in both infrastructure and people. By equipping officers with modern facilities, the initiative provides a more supportive working environment that enhances morale and professional effectiveness. At the same time, it is expected to strengthen cooperation and trust between law enforcement personnel and the communities they serve (Guyana Police Force).
The commissioning of the Timehri Police Station also reflects broader efforts to decentralise policing resources, ensuring that growing and diverse communities across the country have equitable access to law enforcement support. By combining modern infrastructure with renewed community engagement, the initiative seeks to build a safer and more resilient society (Department of Public Information).
The establishment of this facility is ultimately more than the opening of a building; it is part of a wider effort to improve service delivery, strengthen public safety, and reinforce the principle that security is a cornerstone of national development (Guyana Police Force).

New Timehri Police Station Commissioned to Strengthen Security Services
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
t is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
