Better Coverage
We’re adding more Security Officers! Feeling safe can immediately be improved with a stronger presence of security officers throughout our system. We’re adding 34 more Code Compliance Inspector (CCIs) over the next few months. This will boost the total number of Officers patrolling our system from 56 to 90 – a 60% increase!
Better Visibility
Increasing security “train teams” on Trolley lines from 5-6 teams per shift to 8-10 teams per shift. This will help increase the visibility of security officers on all three Trolley lines.
More Patrols on Buses
Doubling the Bus Enforcement security team to help extend security presence beyond major transit centers and Trolley lines.
Better Presence Without Visibility
Doubling the number of officers on the plain-clothes security team to increase the security patrols even when uniformed officers are not visible.
Offering a Helping Hand
Boosting the Homeless Outreach team coverage to seven-days-a-week to better help those in need of social services.
Expanding Coverage
Adding and staffing security outposts at busy transit centers like San Ysidro, 12th & Imperial and El Cajon so officers spend more time on the system and less time traveling to/from headquarters.
