Police Scotland Tulliallan campus to reopen

Police Scotland Headquarters, Tulliallan, the site which includes the Scottish Police College, will reopen from Monday, 9 January.

The site was closed as a precaution from Tuesday, 6 December, to allow remedial work on water systems following the discovery of traces of Legionalla bacteria.

While some buildings and rooms remain isolated for testing and work, officers and staff can safely return to the site.

Deputy Chief Constable Fiona Taylor said: “We have had no confirmed cases and while the risk to people was extremely low, it was right to close Tulliallan while necessary work, cleaning and testing took place.

“Our water safety experts have confirmed officers and staff can safely return to Tulliallan and training courses can resume.

“Measures including routine water sampling, temperature control, increased flushing and robust disinfecting will continue across the site and some rooms remain isolated for the time being.

“As at all times, the safety of officers and staff, and those attending our buildings is a key priority.”
