📸 Big changes are coming to Cardiff Central station! 🎉 29 brand-new CCTV cameras are set to be installed, enhancing security especially on those bustling ‘event days’. The old system, first set up in the early 2000s, has reached its ‘end of life’, so it’s out with the old and in with the shiny new tech!
These state-of-the-art cameras promise better quality and wider coverage across key areas of the station. Rest easy knowing their installation respects the station’s historic charm while ensuring staff can effectively monitor passenger movement.
Listed building consent has been granted for 20 of these cameras, ensuring minimal impact on those architecturally significant areas, with the remaining 9 cameras positioned outside of these zones.
This upgrade isn’t just a facelift; it’s an essential move to boost safety and efficiency during busy times, which the current outdated system simply can’t keep up with.
Safety’s getting a high-tech revamp in Cardiff, keeping both tradition and modern needs in focus! 🚉🔍 Stay tuned for more updates.
