CCTV is set to be installed along Bottle Alley to help make the area more safe and cut down on graffiti.
Hastings Borough Council is launching an official consultation on the plan to instal the cameras, which would be paid for with government funding.
The proposal is to install 20 static cameras that would provide coverage of the entrances and exits along Bottle Alley. The cameras will provide high quality day and night images.
The system would only be accessed by authorised operational staff of Sussex Police and Hastings Borough Council.
Cllr Glenn Haffenden, lead councillor for housing and community safety, said: “We know that Bottle Alley is an area that people are keen for us to have CCTV coverage on for a range of reasons.
“This consultation is part of the process to install CCTV cameras – we want to hear from residents, visitors, businesses and organisations about the plans. We believe that the cameras will help people feel safer when they are using Bottle Alley, which is a really unique part of Hastings.”
Find more information, including a map of the proposed camera locations, on the consultation pages of the council webpages, and complete the short online survey. The consultation will close at 5pm on Thursday 1 May.
