The University of Bristol has been working for the past 18 months on a project to relocate their existing control room from the centre of Bristol to their Veterinary School premises at Langford, about 15 miles away. The new control room upgraded and refurbished by Thinking Space, OCS and project managed by consultants Global MSC Security, is now fully operational and is controlling the 100+ remote cameras in Bristol using a Lenel IP platform to command and control the systems.
The new control room was officially opened on 8th September by Professor Jo Price (Head of the School of Veterinary Sciences); also in attendance were Jerry Woods and Tony Blundall from the University of Bristol security team, Michael Cox and Graham Dixon from OCS and Liz Lloyd of Global MSC Security as well as other members of the University security team and staff.
