Smart Radio in Southend-on-Sea
With a clear vision within their ‘Digital Strategy 2017/2020’ Southend Council laid the foundation to utilise technology to develop Southend as a Smart City. Key to that plan was to build an Intelligence Hub, to be both the ‘eyes and ears’ of the Borough and the ‘nerve centre’ through which service responses, manual or automated, can be triggered on a 24/7 basis building on the existing CCTV facility.
