CCTV
Cameras
|
The
TICID has a total of
11 cameras in the area
including two LPR (Licence
Plate Recognition) cameras
at both entrances of
Brug and Electron Street
and the CID will be
expanding the CCTV network
shortly.
The
CID has had huge success
where footage is handed
over to SAPS.
Even
if the criminals manage
to escape, they can
possibly be identified
after the fact through
captured images.

CID
Trailer

The
CID trailer that was
sponsored by the Department
of Community Safety,
(DOCS) together with
a security officer is
deployed daily from
Mon – Fri at the
Uranium Street gate
that leads to the public
open space.
All
people entering the
area are monitored daily.

Bush
clearing
Due
to the robberies and makeshift
structures that were popping
up and the high fire risk on
the public open space adjacent
to Triangle Farm, the CID completed
the bush clearing in June 2021.
