Herein lie the answers to crime and disorder. So many people become
dispirited, fatalistic or angry about crime instead of seeing crime
problems, like business setbacks, as challenges or even
opportunities. This book sets out a clear, systematic and
demonstrably successful strategy for reducing the temptations and
opportunities for crime. You cannot change the travelling public or
the communities which public transport serves, but you can change
the immediate circumstances and surroundings that you present to
people, you can re-think and reinvigorate your service offering,
you can recruit help from other agencies, from staff and even those
who ride the system, and you can make the transition from being
reactive to being ahead of the game. The theory is backed up by
concrete examples of how and why and where smart-thinking has
worked before to outflank crime-this is not just off-the-shelf
self-help philosophy but a compendium of real-world best practice.
What's more, you can often make money, or at least save a lot of
money, by doing the right thing, and this book tells you how. Nick

So many people have become dispirited, fatalistic, or angry about
crime instead of seeing crime problems as setbacks, challenges, or
even opportunities. This book sets out a clear, systematic, and
demonstrably successful strategy for reducing the temptations and
opportunities for crime in the area of public transportation.
Instead of changing the traveling public or the communities which
public transport serves, what needs to change are the immediate
circumstances and surroundings presented to people. Services
offered can be rethought and reinvigorated, recruiting assistance
from other agencies, staff, and even from those who ride the
transportation system. Its a matter of making the transition from
being reactive to being ahead of the game. This study is backed up
by concrete examples of how, why, and where smart-thinking has
worked before to outflank transportation crime. Contents include:
crime and disorder on public transport; understanding local
transport crime problems; anti-soc
