Blackpool's new CCTV control centre with high quality zoom good enough to read jokes on the Comedy Carpet
Walk into Blackpool’s new CCTV control centre and you are confronted with a wall of screens delivering pinpoint sharp images of activity across the town.
Around 100 cameras will also be fitted with tannoy systems to enable public announcements or to make miscreants aware they are being watched. The number of cameras has been increased from 92 to more than 300, with parks including Stanley Park included in the coverage so vandals can be caught in the act.
“But it is not just for the Promenade and the town centre. We also have a lot of CCTV cameras in our residential areas and these will be risk assessed to bring some of these into the system as well.” He said: "For big events like the Air Show and the World Fireworks Championships, it means we will have multiple eyes with a direct link to the CCTV control centre. It will help us get a better idea about footfall, for example on the Comedy Carpet, and make a big difference to crowd safety.”
