Alex joined other Gloucestershire MPs on visit to the recently redeveloped Gloucestershire Constabulary Operations Centre in Bamfurlong.
The Operations Centre - which is home to police dogs, firearms teams, collision investigators and response units - has been completely transformed thanks to a £12.8 million redevelopment.
The redevelopment includes state-of-the-art facilities, a brand new two-storey building and separate buildings for specialist operations.
