CROSSMAGLEN police station is set to permanently close with policing in the area to be transferred to Newtownhamilton.
It was also reported last night that more police will be on the beat in south Armagh, while there will be no more high powered/high velocity arms on show by officers in the area.
The changes are understood to have been discussed at a meeting of the Policing Board on Monday.
It comes amid repeated calls from nationalist politicians for a review of policing in south Armagh, which they claim has barely changed since the signing of the Good Friday Agreement.
