Road and public safety

CCTV

The Shire’s community feedback survey highlighted crime as a key concern, leading to the introduction of license plate recognition (LPR) cameras

The LPR cameras track car and plate details, sending the information back to WA Police where it is cross-checked. This means stolen cars can be identified in real time.

These cameras join other CCTV cameras in Pinjarra, all being used to prevent crime and catch criminals. More cameras will be installed in the future, dependant on funding.

Cam-Map WA

Cam-Map WA is a comprehensive database of all voluntarily registered CCTV systems across Western Australia.

The presence of CCTV cameras in the public domain has become an effective crime prevention tool for the Western Australia Police Force to improve community safety. By self-registering your CCTV system into Cam-Map WA you are voluntarily providing the Western Australia Police Force with knowledge as to your CCTV camera locations and contact information for consideration should your CCTV be potentially deemed useful to investigate incidents.
