Sutton Council is deploying sensors to combat fly tipping and a rise in unauthorised access to the borough’s car parks.
It is preparing to install the sensors and a remote monitoring solution from IoT Solutions Group to anonymously monitor suspicious car park activity in real time. This will enable it to check on whether any offences are taking place and notifying the police if necessary.
It is aiming to prevent illegal activity from occurring and save on the costs of clear-ups after offences have been committed.
Sutton has previously invested in over-height vehicle barriers across many car parks to prevent oversized vehicles entering the sites, although in some instances the locks have been illegally opened overnight.
