I was declared surplus and was given a location to work at that I did not choose. The locations they offered were a joke as they did not have programs or services related to the work I do. Is this constructive dismissal? I have 27 yrs seniority

Your employer cannot unilaterally change the fundamental terms of your employment without your consent. In many cases, an employer changing the employee's location of work can constitute a constructive dismissal. This will usually be the case where the new location would increase the employee's commute by a significant amount.
