Bricknell Avenue-Fairfax Avenue CCTV camera

John Fareham and John Abbott report that plans are under consideration to install a CCTV camera at the junction of Bricknell Avenue and Fairfax Avenue. The purpose of this camera would be to monitor traffic flow at the junction, something of considerable concern to those local residents who often find themselves stuck at the lights for several minutes at a time. The officers have agreed to pursue a bid for funding via the Highways capital programme so that the money can be found to bring the camera from its existing location and connect it to the city-wide CCTV network. We do of course support this proposal and will do all we can to ensure it is indeed funded; we will also keep local residents informed of the progress of the scheme.
