A CCTV coordinator from Guernsey Police is working with people living near proposed new sites and funding is already available for the work to begin.

Guernsey Police are looking to cover blind spots and replace outdated equipment.

“We recently conducted a survey around offences in the night-time economy, which we intend to publish the full results of soon, however one of the key pieces of feedback was that people would feel safer if CCTV coverage was improved,” said a spokesperson for Guernsey Police.

“This upgrade hits key areas around St Peter Port, and will both allow officers to monitor areas if there are any concerns, and also gather strong evidence if an offence is committed.”

Exact plans for the sites will be published at: Crown Pier, the High Street, La Valette, Northside, Salarie Corner, La Tourgand, the Sunken Gardens and St James.
