For locked compounds, vehicles are locked behind a 1.8m fence between the hours of 9.00am and 3.30pm Monday to Friday. These compounds will also have limited CCTV coverage installed by July 2004. For patrolled car parks, a Car Park Attendant is on duty from 7.00am – 9.00pm Monday to Friday, excluding Public Holidays. The car park area is perimeter fenced and security is provided by the presence of the car park Attendant who regularly patrols the car park. b) No. c) In the locked compounds, security is provided by locking the entrance/exit gates.

Security is provided by locking the entrance/exit gates at 9.00am each day and opening them again at 3.30pm. g) & h) Currently, there are security cameras at Currambine, Warwick and Edgewater train stations. They are operational during train running times, but are not monitored ‘live’. They record to video cassette recorder tape. However, all secure and unsecured car parks are being fitted with centrally monitored security cameras under the PTA’s Urban Security Initiative Project (USIP) and this work will be completed within six months. i) Provides a patrolled presence at the car park. j) The number of car park attendants on duty each shift has been increased to three staff per day shift and two staff per afternoon shift, which is an additional two in the morning and one in the afternoon.
