Avondale Mainstreet is committed to providing a safe town centre for the entire community.

The association introduced CCTV cameras in 2022 - a major step in enhancing the safety of Avondale’s public spaces. It engaged Safer Cities, an independent specialist body, to design a best-practice CCTV layout.  To manage costs, the project was divided into two stages.

In 2025, with the support of The Trusts, Avondale Mainstreet has been able to roll out phase two of this critical infrastructure across the town centre reinforcing a shared commitment to community safety and wellbeing.  

The cameras record 24/7 and footage is stored for 28 days.   NZ Police has live access to the cameras for emergency purposes.  The cameras have been instrumental in keeping our mainstreet community feeling safer.
