Edmonton Police Service – Downtown Division – Edmonton, AB

Police Headquarters and Downtown Patrol

The Edmonton Police Service Downtown Division operates out of the police headquarters building, serving the city’s core business and residential districts. This facility functions as the central command for downtown operations and offers extended front counter hours to accommodate the public. It is the only division station open 7 days a week.

Public Services

• Report Filing: Acceptance of reports for property crimes, fraud, and other non-emergency incidents.
• Information & Support: Assistance with general police inquiries, victim support referrals, and guidance on bylaw matters.
• Administrative Services: While most administrative requests (like record checks) are online, the HQ front desk can provide guidance on these processes.

Strategic Location

Located near Chinatown and the Arts District, the station is easily accessible by public transit. It plays a vital role in managing the unique safety challenges of the downtown core, including high-density foot traffic and major event security. Visitors should be aware that security screening may be required for entry into certain areas of the building.
