CPTED

Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design or CPTED (pronounced sep-ted), as it is more commonly known is a proven set of design principles that are internationally recognized and used by planners, designers, police officers, security professionals, academics, educators, retailers and others, to reduce the fear and incidence of crime as well as improve the quality of life. CPTED principles are extremely versatile and cost effective when applied at the design stage. CPTED principles have been adopted by many North American police services, municipalities and planning departments.
