Leicester is undergoing a major transformation, with regeneration projects shaping the future of the city. As new developments take shape, construction sites across Leicester are filled with valuable equipment, materials, and a workforce that needs protection.
At Trust Security Group, we provide comprehensive security solutions to keep these sites safe, ensuring that projects stay on schedule and free from risks. From manned guarding to mobile patrols, our tailored security services are designed to protect Leicester’s growing construction sector.
Leicester’s Rapid Development – A Security Concern?
Leicester’s construction boom is driven by major investments, including:
- St Margaret’s Bus Station Regeneration – A £12.2 million project to improve transport connections.
- Leicester Railway Station Redevelopment – A £22 million transformation of the city’s main transport hub.
- Waterside Development – Revitalising old industrial areas into modern commercial and residential spaces.
- Pilot House Redevelopment – Creating a new business hub for the city.
- Pioneer Park Expansion – Establishing Leicester as a leader in the technology and space industries.
These developments bring growth and opportunity, but also increase the risk of theft, vandalism, and unauthorised access at construction sites. Without professional security, companies face delays, financial losses, and health and safety concerns.
The Biggest Security Threats to Leicester’s Construction Industry
1. Equipment and Material Theft
Construction sites store high-value materials like copper wiring, steel, and specialist tools. Without security, these assets become easy targets for thieves, leading to delays and increased costs.
2. Vandalism and Unauthorised Access
Empty construction sites attract trespassers who can cause damage, delay progress, and pose legal risks. Without clear security measures, sites are vulnerable to break-ins and criminal damage.
3. Safety Hazards and Liability Risks
Construction sites are dangerous environments. If unauthorised individuals gain access and injure themselves, site managers could face legal action.
4. Project Delays and Rising Costs
A security breach can halt operations, causing financial losses and damaging a company’s reputation. Investing in professional security services ensures projects stay on track.
