At Atlas Security, we don’t just talk about safety—we invest in it. We are proud to announce the latest boost to our CCTV infrastructure in the Springfield/Charlo area, further reinforcing our commitment to proactive crime prevention.
Thanks to a powerful partnership with Hume International, we now have more eyes on the area, enhancing protection for residents and businesses. This latest installation includes:
- Corner of Main Road & Luke Avenue – Equipped with two overview cameras, giving our expert CCTV controllers a wide-angle view to monitor and respond effectively in the event of any suspicious activity.
- Corner of Springfield Road & Luke Avenue – Featuring three overview cameras and License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology, ensuring that suspicious vehicles are flagged the moment they enter the area.
These newly installed CCTV poles complement the security boost we introduced in August 2024 at Tanglewood Villas along with the Springfield NHW, strengthening the protective shield in the area.
This is what happens when businesses with the same vision for a safer community come together! By working with committed partners like Hume International, we continue to invest in security, ensuring that our clients and their communities remain protected.
