Surrey Police Service’s (SPS) Public Safety Camera program includes the use of trailers that serve as mobile video surveillance to investigate and deter criminal activity. 

SPS may also use Public Safety Cameras for major events, to support crowd management, public safety, and emergency response. The trailers are equipped with cameras that will only be used to monitor publicly accessible areas. These cameras are important tools for investigators and provide important benefits for community safety.All camera views are restricted from recording inside private dwelling spaces or anywhere there is a “reasonable expectation of privacy”. Public safety cameras are being used solely to capture video recordings for public safety and law enforcement purposes only. Public safety cameras may be equipped with automated licence plate reader (ALPR) technology, which help police to identify and locate stolen vehicles. They will not be put in place to enforce speeding, and they will not be equipped with facial recognition or biometric identification technology.For more information, please contact Surrey Police Service at 604-599-0502.Personal information collected by Public Safety Cameras is authorized under section 26(c) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (BC).
