New CCTV cameras are set to be installed in Peterborough city centre following the successful planning application from TSB Bank on Long Causeway. 

 

Two new dome cameras will be installed below the shop's frontage in a bid to increase security for the bank's ATM users and to discourage people from using the machine fraudulently. Both cameras will be signposted and registered with the Information Commissioner's Office. 

 

Crime Officer Jules Hanrahan said: “Having looked at the crimes and incidents this area is a considered medium to high risk in relation to the vulnerability of crime and the fear of crime, this office are of the opinion that the proposed application and location of the cameras to be acceptable.

 

“External CCTV should be well signed and registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office. These signs should conform to the Information Commissioner’s Office regulations and placed in relevant areas around the site including the main entrance and near the cash machine.

 

“This office has no objection and are happy to support the application.”
