Albury Courthouse Expansion
The Albury Courthouse stands as the busiest courthouse in regional NSW, with recent expansion efforts enhancing its capacity by 50%. The works undertaken include:
- Installation of a new magistrate’s chambers, courtroom communications room, and jury assembly room
- Renovation of the sheriff’s area, two Audio Visual Link (AVL) suites, and remote witness room
- A new detainee dock.
- Upgrade of the secure corridor linking the existing courthouse to the police station
Furthermore, the addition of a new local courtroom and new parking facilities between the Police Station and Courthouse aims to address the increasing demand for court services in Albury, ensuring sustained community service for years to come. This project represents a mutually beneficial scenario for Albury, enhancing the functionality of the courthouse, extending its lifespan, and generating employment opportunities within the city.
