Velez-Malaga adds new cameras to tackle traffic problems and illegal rubbish dumping

The municipality of Velez-Malaga is set to enhance its CCTV surveillance system with new cameras aimed at tackling traffic congestion and illegal rubbish dumping. Mayor Jesús Lupiáñez unveiled the €48,000 expansion during a visit to the Local Police headquarters, where officers will monitor the network from a central control room.

The initiative includes 10 cameras designated for traffic monitoring, covering busy roads and junctions in Velez-Malaga, Torre del Mar, and surrounding areas. Additionally, cameras will be installed in Benajarafe and Caleta de Velez to monitor illegal rubbish dumping hotspots. The project also incorporates 4G connectivity, lighting, loudspeakers, and 10 Internet of Things (IoT) sensors to measure rubbish container levels in real-time, improving waste collection routes. This move aims to improve public safety and daily life in the region.
