'other such place'

I now require you to accompany me to the police station or other such place for the purposes of a compulsive impairment test, blood test, or both.

Parts of speech and meaning of the words in bold please? I have a re-wording I think reads better and maybe more correctly, but I just wanted to parse the original before I move foward. Emotion: big smile

Thanks

Other such place means that should the police decide not to go to the police station they could go somewhere else. A hospital/doctors to have a blood test taken for example. Other such place - the such means meeting the requirements.

Hi, English,

It does sound awkward - like an article from the vehicle code has been fudged for a dialog.

I'd say "other such place" = adv., adj., noun.
