32.4 million hryvnias are planned to be allocated from the Mykolaiv budget in 2024 for the installation of video surveillance cameras under the Safe City program.
This is evidenced by the data published in the draft budget for the Mykolaiv City Territorial Community for 2024.
It is predicted that the project will be 75% ready at the end of 2024.
As you know, the total cost of the project is 71 million 643 thousand 944 hryvnias. The general period of project implementation is specified from 2020 to 2025.
We will remind that in Mykolaiv they plan to equip 270 plots in various districts of the city with cameras, and the construction is divided into four stages:
-
Next is the Central part of the city. 88 video surveillance areas will be set up there, on which 86 cameras for fixing car numbers and 52 surveillance cameras will be installed.
-
II phase of construction — Khersonske shosse/Soliany. These are also 88 areas where 91 cameras for fixing state license plates and 38 surveillance cameras will be installed.
-
III stage of construction — Pohranychna/Bohoiavlenskyi prospect, which will include 54 video surveillance sites with 97 state license plate recording cameras;
-
Stage IV — Old Center/Cosmonauts: 40 video surveillance areas, where 93 state license plate recording cameras and 5 surveillance cameras will be installed.
The Safe City program provides a 24-hour display of the operational situation in real time. Video cameras provide video surveillance and recognition of front number plates, makes and models of vehicles for maximum safety efficiency at road junctions.
The main functions of the system include round-the-clock control of events in the city, prompt response to socio-political measures, and management of the city in emergency situations. An important feature is the creation of operational databases for the search of vehicles according to various parameters.
We would like to remind that in 2023 it was planned to complete the first stage of the implementation of the Safe City system, about 150 additional cameras will appear on the streets of two districts.
Earlier, the Mykolaiv City Council chose a company that will be engaged in the construction of the Bezpechne Misto video surveillance and analytics system for 67.4 million hryvnias. The mayor's office noted that they are now implementing the first step in the Tsentralnyi and Zavodskyi districts. Priority is given to the installation of number plate recording cameras.
As you know, the development budget of Mykolaiv, which is aimed at the implementation of city projects in various areas, will amount to about 347 million hryvnias in 2024.
