RE contract
Quadnetics Group plc ("Quadnetics") has signed a £1.5m CCTV deal with
Stagecoach
Quadnetics and Stagecoach, one of the UK's largest bus operators,
have signed a new £1.5m contract for the supply, installation and
maintenance of CCTV on Stagecoach's new buses.
The 12-month deal will ensure all new buses ordered by Stagecoach in
2008-09 are fitted with state-of-the-art digital CCTV systems from
Look CCTV, a subsidiary of Quadnetics.
Stagecoach already makes extensive use of Look CCTV's systems
throughout its bus fleet across the UK.
Look CCTV is the UK's leading supplier of on-vehicle digital CCTV
systems with over 16,000 systems installed. The latest digital CCTV
systems provide bus and coach operators with a powerful tool to
combat crime on buses and reduce fraudulent insurance claims. The
Look system includes wireless network applications to streamline CCTV
maintenance and provide high capacity data logging for video and
audio recording.
Les Warneford, Managing Director of Stagecoach UK Bus, said: "This
latest investment is part of our ongoing commitment to the safety and
security of our passengers and our drivers."
"Buses are the country's most popular form of public transport and
crime on buses is extremely low. However, even the fear of crime can
act as a deterrent to travel. CCTV has a proven track record of
making passengers feel safe, cutting crime and anti-social behaviour
and helping track down offenders."
Andrew Prince, Managing Director, Look CCTV, said: "We are delighted
to be awarded this exclusive CCTV deal with Stagecoach, a valued
customer who we have worked with over a number of years. This deal
will allow us to develop an even closer working relationship covering
both existing and new CCTV technologies."
