A Victoria Police CCTV trailer is currently set up in Emerald.

Local residents have seen the mobile camera that has been erected in Paternoster Road, as a result of issues raised by the public in relation to speeding vehicles and hoon behaviour in the area.

Units from Cardinia Highway Patrol, Emerald and Pakenham Police have increased their patrols in the area to ensure the message gets across that poor driver behaviour is not acceptable.

The CCTV trailer reinforces that message by being a visual deterrent, as well as providing an opportunity to record any offences occurring in the vicinity.

Cardinia Police have two CCTV trailers at their disposal, which have most recently been utilised at several local footy finals and other significant community events.
