PROTECTING
businesses, customers & staff spend £362.5k A thriving city centre is a place where people feel safe. We’ve worked hard to support a 7.9% reduction in overall recorded crime through a range of initiatives including key investment in enhanced CCTV and groundbreaking programmes like Check Out. Partnership working with Police Scotland has been central to this success and we will further strengthen and build upon this relationship over our next term, looking to deliver specific initiatives linked to city centre bicycle and motorbike crime.
CCTV
Our investment in city centre CCTV closed a key gap in coverage, improving safety within the BID and assisting with investigations and prosecutions. We will continue to provide funding to support these vital tools going forward.
