40萬英磅撥資令 Reading 雷丁市中心更安全

 

超過 400,000 英鎊的資金將用於使雷丁的兩個區域更安全,將「降低犯罪風險」,以便警察可以停止「追捕罪犯」。

這是泰晤士河谷警察和犯罪專員馬修·巴伯 (Matthew Barber) 的希望,他本月早些時候宣布了政府撥款。

這筆錢將用於減少 Oxford Road 和 Coley 地區的入室盜竊、搶劫和盜竊。

這筆錢將用於為房東提供支持、培訓警察和安裝更多的閉路電視。

該地區有相當高的出租物業密度,可悲的是經常(在這種情況下雷丁與牛津相似) 遺憾的是出租的房產通常是盜竊的目標,因此,其中一些資金將用於改善個人房產的家庭安全。


Police chief reveals how Rading's Safer Streets funding will be spent


More than £400,000 in funding set to be used to make two areas of Reading safer will ‘reduce the risk of crime’ so that police officers can stop ‘chasing around after criminals.’

That’s the hope of Matthew Barber, Thames Valley’s Police and Crime Commissioner, who announced the government grant earlier this month.

The money will be used to reduce burglary, robbery and theft in the Oxford Road and Coley areas.

It will be spent on providing support for landlords, training for police officers and installing more CCTV.

Explaining how the cash will be spent, Mr Barber told the Chronicle: “It is certainly [going to be] quite a bit of CCTV.

“It's not the same as, but it's similar to a previous project we had in Oxford.

“There's quite a high density of rental properties in the area, and sadly often -- and Reading is similar in to Oxford in this case -- it is sadly rented properties are often those targeted for burglaries, because landlords aren't necessarily that fussed about making sure that their properties are as well maintained as you might do if you're a homeowner.

“And so some of that money will be looking to improve home security on individual properties.

“I think that's the beauty of this sort of project because it is quite a large sum of money for a very tightly defined area.

“The first stage of the work will be to properly assess what needs to be done, but it will be CCTV, it will be some crime prevention advice, it will be training up both some police officers and some Council staff to be properly qualified to offer some crime prevention advice.

“You and I know you should lock your doors, but we probably don't know exactly which locks are the ones that are recommended to be most secure.

 

“It's about that and then potentially providing some grants for people to actually make sure that they follow that advice.

“Hopefully we end up with a building stock in that area which is physically more secure and that simply reduces the risk of crime rather than just chasing around after criminals.”
