Question
What action is the Cabinet Secretary taking to increase the level of CCTV coverage across railways in south Wales?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales
We are investing £1bn to upgrade the Core Valley Lines, which includes station facilities such as CCTV. TfW are working with Network Rail to provide improvements to stations we don't own.
CCTV is in operation on TfW trains to protect and reassure passengers. The brand-new trains being introduced thanks to our £800m investment are fitted with the latest CCTV equipment and every TfW service is operated with a conductor provided with a body-worn camera.
