Lancashire Evening Post
|October 06, 2025
Parts of Preston city centre which have become a hotbed for drug dealing and antisocial behaviour will see new CCTV cameras trained on them.
Inside a CCTV control room
Side streets running down from Fishergate towards Winckley Square are to be focused on in the first wave of new cameras from Preston City Council.
Residents living in and around Mount Street have long been complaining of issues with youth antisocial behaviour, empty buildings being entered and drug dealing taking place.
The city council say the 14 new CCTV cameras are being aimed at 'low-light areas' and 'known locations for crime and antisocial behaviour'.
