Last month, the City completed the installation of CCTV cameras and pathway lighting in the Karawara Greenways area as part of our CCTV Plan.

This project was funded by the City and the Australian Government Local Road and Community Infrastructure grant and addresses community feedback to improving visibility and general safety in the area.

About the project

An extension of the existing CCTV facilities at the Kararwara Greenways is proposed by the City to enhance the security of the area. This is to be conducted in conjunction with an install of additional lighting infrastructure in the area to assist with security and enhance usage of the Greenways area.

The decision to install additional CCTV facilities was made by the City’s Community Safety Group in February 2020. This is in accordance with City’s CCTV plan which has identified these works as Stage 2 of the of the Karawara Greenways CCTV works.

Overall, the project involves the supply and installation of 12 new CCTV cameras and 4 new poles as well as the installation of new pole top luminaries, including 3 new poles. The new electrical and communications works are required to operate in conjunction with existing infrastructure as documented with the design drawings and specification.
