The Schrinner Council will roll out 17 new CCTV safety cameras across six suburbs to help stand up for Brisbane on crime and keep the city's suburbs safe.
Backed by a $1 million contribution from the Crisafulli Government, the new safety cameras will be installed in Fortitude Valley, Spring Hill, Bowen Hills, Mitchelton, Keperra and Alderley.
The rollout of additional CCTV follows recent crimes, including a firebombing that devastated two Alderley businesses at South Pine Rd and Railway Pl, where a new camera will be placed.
The staged installation of new cameras in Mitchelton began on November 13 and is backed by strong community support following a recent spate of crime and businesses being targeted by vandals in the area.
Each unit is a next-generation 5-in-1 camera, featuring speakers that can issue real-time warnings against illegal behaviour.
All cameras will feed into Council’s 24/7 Security Operations Centre, which already monitors more than 4450 cameras across the city.
The Schrinner Council’s CCTV safety cameras have helped identify more than 950 incidents in 2025 to date, in addition to 5320 incidents over the past three years.
