State police Troop L at Schuylkill Haven will be breaking ground at the end of the month to move to a new location.
The new building will be on state Route 183 in Wayne Township, not far from the Summit Station Fire Company, about 3 miles away from the current site.
The troop moved to its current building at 23 Meadowbrook Drive in 1985 and leases the building from Miller Brothers Construction, Schuylkill Haven.
The current lease expires June 30, 2017.
The barracks covers Klingerstown to Port Clinton and provides police coverage to 17 municipalities who do not have a police force, including Cressona, North Manheim Township and Norwegian Township.
Construction on the new building is expected to take about 14 months.
