CAMERA TRIAL

A NUMBER of TransLink Senior Network Officers (SNOs) will be equipped with body worn cameras while patrolling the public transport network under a four-week trial.

Minister for Transport and Main Roads Mark Bailey said the cameras would improve safety for members of the public and TransLink employees.

SNOs will activate video recording when they are exercising a power, such as requiring a customer to provide personal information or directing a person to leave a passenger vehicle or infrastructure.
