Overview: This document is intended as a companion guide to the ‘Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design Guidelines for Queensland: Part A: Essential features of safer places’.
For some local councils, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is already an integral part of their vision, strategy, policy and implementation processes. For others, CPTED is a new concept.
The aim of this implementation guide is to assist local councils for whom crime prevention, and CPTED in particular, is relatively new. Accordingly, its emphasis is on helping some local councils to “get started on CPTED”.
There is a lot of information in this implementation guide. Since the prior experience of councils with CPTED varies, this guide is intended to provide a “menu” of implementation options.
