Transport for London (TfL) has launched a trial of CCTV at 20 bus shelters across the capital in a bid to improve safety, particularly for women and girls.

Five bus shelters were fitted with CCTV in March and a further 15 will take part in a year-long pilot across Brent, Croydon, Hackney, Hammersmith and Fulham, Hillingdon, Lambeth, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, Waltham Forest, and Westminster.

The cameras will be available to the Met Police and TfL will gather feedback to assess how safe bus users feel.

TfL’s director of security, policing and enforcement, Siwan Hayward, said: ‘We want women and girls to be safe and feel safe, and for the TfL network to be a beacon of safety for everyone, day and night.

‘We know the presence of CCTV and other security measures improves confidence to travel and use public transport, which is why we are expanding our already extensive CCTV network.’
