Vt. State Police Consider Williston Barracks Move

Posted: Updated:
WILLISTON, Vt. -

Vermont State Police say heavy traffic at the Williston barracks is making them consider a move.

The barracks is just north of the Interstate 89 exit 12 off ramps, which sends traffic by the building. There's also lots of shopping areas around the barracks.

Allen Palmer, a property management specialist with the state of Vermont, tells the Burlington Free Press  that makes it tough for police to get in and out of the barracks.

State Police are looking at some options. The state Building and General Services department put out an advertisement asking property owners along I-89 near exit 11 in Richmond or exit 17 in Colchester to contact them if they had land as potential public safety building sites. Some property owners have responded.
