PLETTENBERG BAY NEWS - A newly installed security camera is making a positive difference for residents of Keurbooms River, outside Plettenberg Bay. It follows concerns expressed by local residents in recent months of an increase in crime in the area.
“The initiative to upgrade security in the area was a joint effort between local estates, the community policing forums and the Plettenberg Bay police. Everyone agreed that something needed to be done, which led to the idea of installing a security camera network,” explained Fidelity ADT Garden Route branch manager Steven Green.
A strategically placed security camera was set up, at an entrance and exit point to Keurbooms River. “The camera now serves as a surveillance station which monitors all the activities by our officers,” said Green.
“We have already seen a reduction in criminal activities within a short space of time, and it’s incredible to see what a difference such a camera can make in terms of creating awareness and increasing visibility.”
He added that local community collaboration is critical in strengthening security efforts, and thanked all the role players in Keurbooms for their involvement.
