It’s been more than five years since discussions were initiated and we are excited to announce that a dedicated armed response vehicle from Blue Security will be deployed to the Gillitts 2 area on 1st April 2019. This Project means that a Blue and G2 branded Nissan NP200 will patrol, stand off and respond to incidents exclusively within the G2 area.
Previously the G2 area shared a vehicle with neighboring areas and as a result our area would at times have no security vehicle presence.
Advantages of a dedicated vehicle include:
Dedicated zone
The vehicle is deployed to service one area only
Quick Response
Alarm signals are received directly by the dedicated vehicle resulting in quicker reaction times
Patrols
The vehicle patrols our footprint extensively and can be allocated to high visible stand-off locations which provides a very visible presence of armed response in our area
Lower Crime Rates
A dedicated service is very effective in displacing crime to areas without one thereby benefiting all G2 residents.
G2 Patrols Benefits
The G2 Patrol Team will also be able to contact the CPO (Community Protection Officer) directly in order to request assistance for issues that may come through on our emergency resident groups. Preference will however be given to Blue Client callouts but we as G2 will be able to work closely with the vehicle, thereby assisting G2 in our crime prevention and awareness objectives.
The Gillitts 2 Project Announcement document distributed by the Blue Project Manager Keith du Rant is appended to this notice for your information.
