The security forces have been divided to monitor different sections of the Lifco area. This will include monitoring and responding to suspicious activities and supervising various entrances to parks and the greenbelt.
“Lifco, together with Yesizwe, BCI and SRT security companies have ensured that as from the weekend the following CCTV cameras will be commissioned and monitored on a 24/7 basis,” he said. He notified that:
Yeziswe will monitor and respond to:

· The PTZ mountain camera behind Eagles View.
· The new cameras installed in the park area (where Lifco erected the lapa)
· The cameras on the corner of Cascades and Mac Mac Streets.
He said the cameras mentioned will allow Yeziswe to successfully monitor the entrance/ exit from Hendrik Potgieter Road into Fredenharry Road, The Lakes Park area, and also the mountain.
BCI will monitor and respond to:
· The cameras at the Cascades entrance from Hendrik Potgieter Road.
· The cameras on the corner of Cascades and Victoria Roads, leading to the Checkers centre.

He added that BCI has also instructed VumaCam to, as a priority, install the following cameras on the fibre network :
· Additional cameras on the Cascades Road entrance from Hendrik Potgieter Road.
· Two cameras on the greenbelt where Lifco has installed the new fence (next to Christian de Wet Road).
· BCI is also opening and closing the pedestrian gate in the fence at 6am and 6pm respectively.
