Organisation

Policing is organised under six primary intervention centres, under which further secondary intervention centres operate.

The Grand Ducal Police's operations are divided into six regions (circonscriptions régionales), which are under the command of a regional director. The director is responsible for primary intervention centres, secondary intervention centres, local police stations, and region-wide services. The region headquarters are in Capellen, Diekirch, Esch-sur-Alzette, Grevenmacher, Luxembourg City, and Mersch. Diekirch is a town in Luxembourg, capital city of the canton Diekirch and the district of Diekirch. ... District Luxembourg Canton Esch-sur-Alzette Geography Area Area rank 14. ...

The primary intervention centres (Centre d'Intervention Primaire, abbreviated 'CIP') are the most capable and best equipped police stations to address emergencies. The CIPs also serve as the headquarters for the region, providing administrative support for the region's other operation centres. The CIPs' jurisdictions cover their respective regions (illustrated in different colours on the map, right).

Under the six CIPs are thirteen 'secondary intervention centre' (Centre d'Intervention Secondaire, abbreviated 'CIS'). As the CIPs perform the role of the CISs, as well as their own functions, there are seven dedicated CISs, located in Differdange, Dudelange, Echternach, Redange, Remich, Troisvierges, and Wiltz.

Local police stations (Commisariat de Proximité, abbreviated 'CP') operate separately from the CISs and CIPs, but are under the control of the regional director. In addition to the thirteen CIPs and CISs, which perform the role of CPs, there are thirty-eight dedictated local stations, distributed across the main towns and cities of Luxembourg. Eight of these dedicated CPs are in Luxembourg City, in addition to the CIP. A typical suburban police station in the United States (this one is in San Bruno, California). ...

The regional police forces are also directly responsible for policing the roads, criminal investigation, and providing aid to victims of crime.
