Crooks beware as CCTV to get better with new £500k system in Walsall
More than 100 new and improved CCTV cameras are set to go live around Walsall as more than £500,000 is spent upgrading technology.

There are around 90 static cameras and 26 mobile ones in Walsall but council chiefs say are no longer fit for purpose.
Now £543,840 is being spent by Walsall Council on replacing them with cameras that will provide much sharper pictures of suspects.
The cameras are monitored around-the-clock seven days a week from a base in Walsall Wood by council workers.
