Safer Streets 5 Project

Focussed work in Ipswich funded by a Home Office Safer Streets 5 grant will tackle Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) in public spaces and hotspot areas.

A variety of initiatives are being delivered to tackle ASB issues in locations such as:

• Small shopping parades
• Churchyards
• Riverside locations
• Areas within the town centre

The work will include:

• CCTV
• Crimestoppers Zones
• An ASB awareness campaign
• Improved lighting in public spaces
• Better gating and fencing
• Outreach support
• Environmental improvements

Match funding is also generated through a contribution from the Pooled Business Rate fund and in-kind contributions from Ipswich Borough Council, Suffolk County Council, Suffolk Constabulary and the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner.

The project runs until 31st March 2025.
