Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police, Sir Norman Bettison officially opened the University’s refurbished Security Control Room.
Increased and upgraded CCTV monitoring capabilities are among key improvements to the existing service.
The project, aimed at making the University campus and other facilities a safer place for students, staff and visitors, involved installing 32 new CCTV cameras, upgrading 67 existing cameras and total refurbishment of the control room.
Sir Norman said: "The University of Leeds has a massive campus; it is like a small town in itself. With a daily population of some 35,000 people and 572 buildings, the upgraded CCTV will be a very effective tool in reducing crime, whilst improving confidence. This investment is tes##被过滤##ent to the University's commitment to make the campus a safe environment and, if any crime does occur, it will be invaluable to the police investigation."
