Safer Communities

Wireless CCTV helps make communities safer. Plus, it's faster and easier to redeploy than traditional fixed CCTV cameras so trouble spots or special events can be easily addressed. They can also act as a crime deterrent, as well as help people feel safer in the dark.

Housing and social services

Instant access to the council network means that different team members, with appropriate access rights, can fill in forms online to calculate benefits quickly, arrange repairs, revise care plans or make other changes to home help. In addition, changes to the external environment can be communicated quickly and efficiently.

Precision parking

Wireless Broadband can help clear parking trouble spots by enabling parking attendants to move quickly to deal with congested areas. In addition, parking meters using Wi-Fi can send information when they have problems so that they can be repaired quickly.
