Imagine a world where the very design of our neighbourhoods and public spaces serves as a shield against crime. This is the essence of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, or CPTED for short. CPTED is a concept that underscores the pivotal role landscape professionals, together with law enforcement, have in shaping secure and resilient environments. I'm honoured to be joined by Constable Matthew Hunt, the CPTED coordinator for the Ottawa Police Service, and in this conversation, we unravel the intricate relationship between landscape design and crime prevention, explore the principles of CPTED and uncover practical strategies for landscape and horticulture professionals, like you, to become true guardians of our communities Resources Episode Transcription Design safe surroundings - Crime Prevention Ottawa CPTED Canada The International CPTED Association (ICA) - North America Green Cities Foundation Communities in Bloom CPTED Books recommended by Cst.

In a continuing series of discussions with IMEG's market leaders, this episode of The Future Built Smarter features John Holbert, vice president of education. John discusses the challenges facing the market, primarily those for higher education institutions, which face ever-increasing enrollment competition, changes in student demographics, limited resources, aging infrastructure, and difficulties with facility staff retention. Many higher education institutions, as well as K-12 school districts, also face challenges in meeting sustainability and environmental initiatives as well as the need to improve safety and security in their buildings and on their campuses. “Security has become a big topic, and we have started consulting on safety and security plans for campuses and districts,” he says. Such initiatives start with a vulnerability assessment and gap analysis, with planning and design including principles from Crime Prevention through Environmental Design, or CPTED. “We're also seeing more referendums and funding opportunities for safety and security measures,” he adds. Before embarking on any building project, John emphasizes the importance of master planning to best prepare for the needs of the future. Such planning helps institutions meet their long-term goals and allocate funds and other resources accordingly—before it's too late. “Across the landscape of education, we see a lot of deferred maintenance,” he says. “We're still going into 50-plus-year-old buildings that have original systems in them.”

Security continues to become an ever more important aspect of building design, and in this episode, we focus on the security strategy known as Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, or CPTED. Our guest is Ryan Searles, a senior security consultant at IMEG and certified CPTED professional. Ryan has also written about the strategy for the IMEG blog and says it is much more than just “large boulders and trees”—it also leverages architectural elements, social programs, colors, lighting, natural surveillance, natural access control, and even traffic curbing. “We're seeing CPTED being applied a lot more now,” he adds. “We live in crazy times—in the past four to five years we've had a lot of civil unrest and more active shooters. So, more clients are implementing this strategy. Used along with electronic and physical security measures, it provides a solid, holistic approach to safety and security and really helps secure buildings and keep people safe.”

Sabes de que maneras podemos reducir el crimen mediante el diseño? Sabes cuales son los principios de CPTED? Porque los arquitectos no estudiamos esto en la carrera? 3 outakes de este episodio: -CPTED no es un proceso tan obvio como parece -Reducir el crimen deberia ser una iniciativa primordial de cualquier diseño urbanistico -Crear sensacion de seguridad no es solo para lugares hostiles
Many of us struggle with helping architects/designers understand the CPTED processes we need to follow in order to properly integrate Security in the Design of a building. 3 main takeaways:
This is the tenth episode in the Research Transit Handbook of Public Transport Research Series. Links to the book can be found at the end of the notes. In this episode, Dr Laura Aston talks to Professor Graham Currie and Dr Carlyn Muir. Dr Muir is a Senior Research Fellow at the Monash University Accident Research Centre, and has a background in policy and research in public health and safety. Together with Dr Mustafizur Rahaman and Dr Alexa Delbosc, Professor Currie and Dr Muir have co-authored Chapter 5 in the Handbook of Public Transport: Personal safety on public transport: research frontiers and new tools for an old problem. Dr Muir and Professor Currie discuss the complicated relationships and feedback loops between passengers' perceptions of safety, ridership and safety through numbers effects, and the actual incidence of crime. Previous research on 10 transit systems around the world found that personal safety was the top passenger concern in every system, while a UK study indicates that 10% of people would consider using transit if measures were taken to address their fears about a lack of personal safety. The Chapter is based on PhD research by Dr Rahaman, which developed a Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) audit tool for railway stations. CPTED is a multi-disciplinary approach that is about reducing crime and providing deterrence through the use of: Surveillance (formal and natural), Access control (e.g., fencing), Motivation reinforcement (e.g., alarms, gates), Maintenance/image control (e.g., cleanliness), and Territoriality and Activity support. This research is the first time that the CPTED approach has been applied to transit. It developed a framework and scoring approach that allows a railway station to be audited in around half a day. The framework components and the scoring approach are shown in Figure 1 (http://publictransportresearchgroup.info/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/RT32-Figure1.png) Figure 2 shows the results of structural equation modelling undertaken as part of the PhD project, which made some unexpected and nuanced findings. The study found that the Perception Of Safety (POS) at railway stations is most directly influenced by feelings of safety within the neighbourhood surrounding the railway station (0.49). This has important policy implications, as transit operators typically do not have any role or responsibilities beyond the railway property boundary. Figure 2: http://publictransportresearchgroup.info/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/RT32-Figure2.jpg The next most important factors were satisfaction with CPTED (0.43) and concern about Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) (-0.18). However, there was not a direct link between experiencing ASB and POS. Rather, the results found a link between experiencing ASB and experiencing threats on public transport, which linked to POS (-0.13).

A paper has also been pushed in Transportation Research Record about this research, and is available at https://doi.org/10.3141/2540-01. This paper won the 2016 William W. Millar Award for the best paper in public transport at the Transportation Research Board's Annual General Meeting.

Crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED, or “situational prevention”) is an established criminological theory that has recently found a new life in sexual violence prevention. How can CPTED concepts be used to change the physical environment of an area to help prevent sexual violence? In this episode, we explore how a coalition in Kansas City, Kansas is designing environments with the goal of preventing sexual assault. Listen as NSVRC’s Sally Laskey talks with Vanessa Crawford Aragon, Community Prevention Coordinator from the Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault and Dr. Natabhona Mabachi, an Assistant Professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, about their goals, partners, and how the project is evolving during COVID-19.Want to learn more about creating protective environments?

This episode Tom and Vicki talk about the maintenance concept of CPTED and why you need to keep up on it for your business! What is Maintenance? Maintenance is showing visitors that there is ownership to a property. Why is that important? It refers back to the broken window theory. Think about an abandoned house.. over growth, graffiti, busted windows.. no one is watching it and people can do whatever they want. Broken window theory.. broken window will entice vandals to break another. There is an Umbrella Concept of Maintenance Applied to Physical Security and All CPTED Components: Natural Access Control Ensure all environmental strategies implemented are properly maintained to perform the intended objective – to control human and vehicular movement throughout your property and building. Natural Surveillance Ensure all environment strategies implemented are properly maintained to perform the intended objective – to enhance the ability of people within your organization to clearly see what is happening around them – called situational awareness, as well as strategically placing “eyes” on identified vulnerabilities. Territorial Reinforcement Ensure all environment strategies implemented are properly maintained to perform the intended objective – to reinforce property lines between public and private property as well as restricted and non-restricted areas Tune in to learn more about the key concepts and what you can do today to protect your business! Also check out our website at www.defiantenterprises.com!
Tom and Vicki take some time to interview Jack Hendrickson of Rupert Landscaping. Jack has 11 years in Landscaping and has a BS in Business Marketing from Sailsbury University. Why should you tune in? Jack talks to the Business Security team about different ways that your landscaping can effect your property's security efforts. Digging into the four principals of CPTED (crime prevention through environmental design): 1. Natural Surveillance 2. Natural Access Control 3. Territorial Reinforcement 4. Maintenance Jack can help us better understand what all of this is through real world experiences. Helping create a picture to better put these concepts into perspective for everyone!

Today we are diving feet first into what territorial reinforcement is. To recap- it is one of the 4 principles of CPTED. What are the 4 Principals? Maintenance Natural surveillance Natural access control Territorial reinforcement What is Territorial Reinforcement? It is creating a clear distinction between public and private. It’s a Physical design that can create or extend influence. In this setting, users develop a sense of territorial control, while offenders perceive this control and are discouraged from their intentions. Territorial reinforcement is promoted by features that define property lines and distinguish private spaces from public spaces, such as landscape plantings, pavement design, gateway treatments, and fences. What does this mean to business owners and operators? It is the natural way of separating public versus private property. Internally and externally. An example is adding mulch or gravel as opposed to Grass that show a difference in texture as well as color. This helps to represent what may be a barrier visually when you're on the property. You may not completely understand the intention but there is a purpose behind it. There may be different ways to enforce this based on the property you are at. Multi family versus a business park environment. Want to learn more about Territorial Reinforcement and learn about ways you can implement it in your business today? Listen to the podcast!

On today’s episode, Tom and Vicki get into another one of the CPTED principals. What is natural access control? What does it mean? How can it help my business? This principle relies on using pathways, lighting and other means to direct traffic and define spaces for use. Natural access control is one of the 4 main topics of CPTED, to recap the 4 ways are : -Maintenance - Natural Access control -Territorial Reinforcement - Natural Surveillance What is natural access in Freedman talk? It is using natural ways to enhance protection strategies to enhance crime prevention. When we go to access control- our minds automatically go to electronic. But using CPTED, we can cut down on the technology or help enhance it. Some of the features are more budget friendly than having to go through a large technology outlet and are available to you right now! What’s the difference between natural access control and natural surveillance? Natural Surveillance is about enhancing situational awareness. Positioning your building and people to be more aware of their surroundings. Natural access control uses natural ways that can limit or control human foot traffic. Real Life examples: - adding barriers and fencing - rocks vs grass in landscaping - the maze at the bank to get to the teller Natural vs. Electronic access control: Often, this is not a one or another scenario. In most scenarios you will see both go hand in hand to reinforce the best security options. What can you do today to help your business? Listen to the podcast now to find out!

Today Tom and Vicki are getting into natural surveillance- one of the four elements of CPTED. What is CPTED? Crime prevention through environmental design. It is essentially uses natural methods to control human behavior to reduce crime. What is natural surveillance? What does it mean? Using natural ways -not technology ways -of improving overall situational awareness for human beings on the property. How is this explained? Natural surveillance is one of the 4 main topics of CPTED, to recap the 4 ways are : -Maintenance - Natural Access -Territorial Reinforcement - Natural Surveillance Natural surveillance uses all-natural ways to increase security and can be used hand in hand with technology safety devices. It uses 3 main categories: -Lighting- Dark is the best time for bad things to occur, and people cannot identify what is going on in a dark space. Is your property well lit? In and outside? Take a look! -Landscaping- The more you can see the better! To repeat: The more you can see the better! Eliminate solid walls, solid barriers- we need to be able to see what is going on behind them. Don’t hinder the view from the outside in or the inside out. -Positioning- Turning objects, furniture, ect. in a way that does not cause a visibility blockage and allows for more human eyes to view more. What’s the gist? Criminals will look for opportunities where they can easily hide and escape. Some quick ways to incorporate- keeping all areas well lit, moving desks so employees can see outside and keep landscaping up to par. Some ways to incorporate natural surveillance: -Keep areas well lit, put in your calendar as a reminder to walk your property! - eliminate hiding spots: cut down hedges and remove trees and bushes -6 ft 2 ft rule- no fences over 6 feet and no shrubs over 2 feet What are things people don’t usually think about? Colors play a huge part in natural surveillance. You can change the colors or walls and rooms that can draw attention and can eliminate or deter crime Lighting- not all bulbs are created equal! Lighting can alter the color of objects and people. Does this include CCTV? Cameras are directly correlated with natural surveillance. If you spend a lot of money on cameras and you have trees blocking the view, the cameras are ineffective. Fun fact: some police departments have a community partnership team and part of their job duty is to come out and do a site survey. How can you find out more about natural surveillance?

In this episode, Tom and Vicki get into Tom’s favorite topic- CPTED! Getting into the basics of the theory so you can have a better idea of how to deter crime in their current environment. What is CPTED? C-Crime P- Prevention T-Through E-Environmental D-Design What exactly does that mean? Thinking outside the box and utilizing methods that don’t require technology. Thinking about security that often costs 0$! Who doesn’t like FREE!? What the heck does this have to do with YOUR business? When you can combine technology with CPTED and making them mesh together will truly optimize your security. Let’s break this down….It’s preventing crime by designing or redesigning the environment that surrounds your people and property to influence positive human behavior. An easy example would by to move a desk to face out the window so your people can become more aware of their surroundings. CPTED has 4 main principles: -Natural Surveillance: Putting human eyes in place or in addition cameras. Shifting a desk to see outside. - Natural Access: applying natural methods to make sure people are entering certain spaces based on the protocols you put together. Example: add a barrier to a space so people can’t enter a certain space. - Maintenance: Is exactly like it sounds, maintaining the property to make sure all of the plans you put in place are being upheld to the fullest. What is the point of having the world’s safest parking lot if a light gets burnt out and no one replaces it? -Territorial reinforcement: Understanding what your property is and what isn’t. Using textures and colors, to understand what is private vs public property. You’re probably thinking.. “ok but how does this translate to my business today?” Here are some things you can do as soon as you are done listening to the podcast! Think about how to improve your access control in a natural way (landscaping, barriers, ect. Look at the layout of your office now. Can you reposition desks so your employees can see and hear what is outside? Need more help?? First: Listen to the podcast!

No nosso primeiro episódio especial, desta semana, vamos falar da pesquisa concluída em 2016 pela Profa. Dra. Luciene Pessotti. A pesquisa foi realizada entre 2013 e 2016 com apoio financeiro da Fundação de Amparo a Pesquisa e Inovação do Espírito Santo (FAPES), e institucional da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES). A pesquisa foi elaborada com apoio técnico-científico de duas arquitetas e urbanistas, Luana Zatta de Souza, Virginia Magliano Queiroz, e da assistente social Marina Peruzza Queiroz. Além destas arquitetas mais três arquitetos participaram com apoio técnico, além de 9 bolsistas de iniciação científica. O objeto de estudo foi o Bairro de São Torquato, situado no município de Vila Velha, Espírito Santo. O bairro estava na relação do Edital FAPES nº 022/2012. Neste Edital foram elencados 30 aglomerados responsáveis por 50% dos crimes letais intencionais. Em 2011 foi criado o Programa Estadual Estado Presente em Defesa da Vida, cujo principal objetivo é promover a articulação institucional para implantar ações de enfrentamento à violência letal e para a prevenção primária por meio da articulação de políticas públicas e sociais em regiões de elevados índices de vulnerabilidade social. O método para avaliar a influência do desenho urbano na criminalidade no bairro de São Torquato foi o CPTDE, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, ou Prevenção de Crimes através do Design Ambiental. Foram realizadas visitas técnicas em países da América Latina onde estratégias do método foram utilizadas para redução da violência. Colômbia e Chile tiveram intervenções de integração de arquitetura e desenho urbano visando a melhoria dos espaços urbanos como forma de diminuir a criminalidade. O Complexo do Alemão, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, também foi visitado para se conhecer as estratégias adotadas, segundo os critérios do CPTED, para redução da criminalidade. As intervenções do Complexo do Alemão tem certas semelhanças com as que sofreram a cidade de Medellín, Colômbia. O resultado final da pesquisa foi a elaboração de diretrizes projetuais a partir do método CPTED, a partir da ferramenta MATRIZ SWOT. Foram consideradas também as experiências dos estudos de caso da América Latina. REFERÊNCIAS BIBLIOGRÁFICAS PESSOTTI, Luciene et al.

In this episode, Jimmy is joined by his friends BK and Skip Miller. They talk a CPTED class that Jimmy recently attended and how it could have been improved.
"Can't Play Though Everyone Does?" Nope, it's "Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design." CPTED is also known as "Design Out Crime" and "Defensible Spaces." There are ways to make your property less attractive to criminals by increasing the natural surveillance and probability that criminal acts will be detected. Bad things happening are deterred where good CPTED practices are observed. When hearing about it for the first time, most people recognize the value of this common sense approach to target hardening.

Well-lit areas have less crime than areas that are enshrouded in darkness at night. Properties with waist-high fencing at the front of the dwelling and shoulder-height fencing on the B, C, and D sides tend to be less prone to break-ins. Structural elements that prevent access and egress to open areas help prevent criminal activity. Crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) is not a new concept—it dates back to the 1960s—but it is ever evolving. In this podcast segment, Jim and Doug discuss the latest trends.
How does the new screening center at the Washington Monument enable security without compromising visitors’ experiences? Jill Cavanaugh of Beyer Blinder Belle Architects and Planners in Washington D.C. breaks it down. Plus, Stevan Bernard and SM Highlights host Chuck Harold discuss the state of security in the entertainment industry—from piracy to location risk assessments to talent protection.
Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is defined as a multi-disciplinary approach to deterring criminal behavior through environmental design. CPTED strategies rely upon the ability to influence offender decisions that precede criminal acts by affecting the built, social and administrative environment. In this podcast segment, Jim and Doug discuss how architecture and landscaping, outdoor lighting, and other environmental elements can help to reduce crime.

La Criminología Ambiental plantea que toda conducta ocurre en un lugar, lo que convierte al escenario, al contexto, en una variable más a la hora de predecir y explicar el comportamiento. Mientras que la criminología tradicional estudia al hombre y los factores biopsicosociales que lo llevan a delinquir, la Criminología Ambiental examina como interactúa el espacio y tiempo con la motivación del individuo para cometer un delito. La Criminología Ambiental explica por qué en ciertos escenarios es más probable que ocurran determinados delitos. Esto es de amplia utilidad para predecir, controlar y prevenir conductas de riesgo. Una de sus principales herramientas es entender cuales son las oportunidades que facilitan la actividad delictiva en un espacio determinado. En el ámbito corporativo la criminología ambiental se utiliza con frecuencia debido a que las estrategias de prevención son en su mayoría situacionales, se debe adaptar al espacio especifico en que se desarrolla la conducta. En este capítulo te expongo una forma de usar las herramientas de CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) aplicado en empresas.
Questions about the apartment security gang takeover of my building? My rental property was taken over by Los Angeles gang members. How can I get them out and make my building safe? I called the police and was told they can't remove them, is that true? A Crime School listener named Victor contacted me asking for advice about apartment security and gang takeover of his building. I spoke to him on the phone to gather more details. High-crime four-plex apartment building Here is a summary of what Victor said: His elderly mother owns a two-story four-plex apartment building in a high-crime neighborhood of Los Angeles His mother is physically unable to manage the property any longer He lives eighty-miles away with his own career and family. He is trying to help out his mother part-time on weekends The building is taken over by gangsters who he believes forced entry and is living in the second-floor units He can't find leases or paperwork on any of the tenants so he doesn’t know for certain who is authorized to live there He used to get HAP payments from one section-8 tenant, but no one is paying rent now He has called the police. They say it’s a civil matter and cannot remove the occupants since they say they're tenants He has parked across the street during the day and night and observed a lot of gangster foot-traffic in and out of the units He suspects drug activity and prostitution is going on based on his observations of foot traffic There are a fence and gate around the property, but someone disabled the locks He wants to clean out the whole building and start over but doesn’t know where to begin and he is afraid There are two abandoned cars, probably stolen, parked in his lot He wants to know if he should buy video cameras or hire a security guard patrol to get proof of the crime Aerial view of the high-density high-crime neighborhood Your Response to Apartment Security Gang Takeover Your first priority is the safety of any tenants, unit occupants, and even trespassers. Next, you need to make an assessment of who is living there and the condition of every unit. Search for paperwork, leases, rent checks, receipts, deposit accounts, HUD correspondence, etc. You need to address this problem quickly, but in an organized manner with a plan. Until you get some training, hire a property management consultant that specializes in distressed rental housing to assist with: lawful evictions. emergency board-up. a building rehabilitation strategy. new lease documentation. Develop an action plan and detailed to-do list with a distressed property consultant. Consider taking time off work, if possible, to address the major issues all at once. Determine if it’s in your family’s best interest to sell the building or heavily reinvest in it. Plan of Action Timeline Partner with the Angeles Police Department immediately about criminal activity LAPD 77th Street Community Station is a half-mile away. Introduce yourself to the police station Captain and solicit support. Meet your police beat-officers and patrol Sergeant (i.e. beats are now called cars). Ask for a free property CPTED security survey by the crime prevention unit. Follow the LAPD advice about posting no loitering and trespass signs. Partner with the local apartment association Contact and join your local apartment owners association. Get a crash course in property management and tenancy rules for gang takeover. Learn about more in-depth educational opportunities for new property managers. Obtain proper lease documentation and seek training to comply with California landlord/tenant regulations. Seek referrals to qualified property management consultants. Once supported by law enforcement and guided by a property consultant Begin to take back control of your property.
Making Places Safe Crime needs a place to happen. Making Places Safe from crime puts focus on the where question. It is far easier to develop a security plan for a single place than to figure out answers to innumerable questions about who, what, when, how, and why crime might occur. A rising trend in criminal activity may require some level of intention and action to address the contributing risk factors. Making Places Safe Some places are inherently safe. Without any thought, action, or intention required to make them that way. This does not mean that these places are 100% guaranteed safe. Yet, most would agree that it's reasonably safe. These fortunate places usually have several things in common: Historically safe geographic area & neighborhood. The nature of the premises is low-risk (e.g. single-family home versus 24-hour store). Daily activity & visitor traffic is low-risk. The occupants or users of the place keep it reasonably safe. Some places can be made reasonably safe by using basic security methods or compliance with regulations: For example, minimum standards set forth by building codes, city planning, or business license. Private places can limit or restrict access, enforce rules, and use counter-measures like video surveillance, alarm systems, and warning signs. Shopping center common area lighting and landscaping can meet minimum city planning CPTED standards. Residential structures can meet minimum building code standards with adequate door and window security features & fire safety devices. Nightclubs can meet minimum standards by complying with fire marshal building capacity, permitted use regulations, licensing & permits, alcohol service training. What happens if circumstances change and compliance with minimum standards no longer provide adequate security? A good place to start is to make a new crime risk assessment as a basis for modifying the original security plan. A reasonable security plan addresses the specific circumstances of the property necessary for reducing the crime risk. No security plan is perfect, but a clearly defined plan shows a positive response to making places safe. The security plan must be property-based. Every place is different when you consider location, design, size, layout, intended use, traffic, demographics, and activity. A corporate-wide security plan may not be adequate to address the factors identified in the local crime risk assessment. A security plan must be clearly defined and articulated for making places safe. It should leverage facility design, and use of hardware, equipment, personnel, and procedures to the extent necessary to make the property reasonably safe. A security plan does not have to address a temporary activity center that elevates the crime risk if it can be eliminated as a component of the property. A security plan should be dynamic enough to assign different levels of priority for the protection of people or property by variables in day-of-week and time-of-day. How to make places safe for people and property are core objectives at Crime SchoolTweet This Who is responsible for making places safe? It's a question of who has the duty, control, authority, or undertakes by agreement. The duty for making places safe can be a complex legal question especially when disputed. In future episodes, we will interview attorneys and property management experts about the legal concepts of duty, negligence, liability, and the sometimes cooperative responsibility for making places safe. Here is a list of who typically has responsibility for making places safe (in order of precedence): A property owner (e.g. private or public entity). Property manager. Tenant. Lessee. Contractor. Property user. Some combination of the above. A security plan is a blueprint for making places safe
