Security conference in the Passeig de Gràcia

Last Monday, February 4, we met again at the security day at the Majestic Hotel & Spa Barcelona to continue working for effective management of thefts on the avenue, crime prevention and the acquisition of guidelines to act in certain situations.

In addition, in this month, the schedules of the courts have been extended and a new court of law has been created to speed up rapid trials, which will help to speed up the judicial management of crimes and increase the feeling of greater confidence and security.

Several actions carried out to increase security in the Passeig de Gràcia have been commented: Enabling a police station in the center of the Eixample to present complaints, installing security cameras to detect thefts, increasing the number of FURA and periodic meetings with Mossos d’Esquadra and Guardia Urbana to monitor security measures on the avenue. In addition, the possibility of deploying civic agents in the hands of Bip Control, a private security agency, as well as the modification of the penal code to penalize recidivists in crimes is being studied.
