Birmingham City Council, GB takes aim at illegal dumping with its AI-enabled CCTV camera pilot

Birmingham City Council, GB AI CCTV Illegal Dumping Pilot

In Progress

City officials received a £45,000 national grant for a pilot in Aston, Erdington, and North Edgbaston. Cameras placed near dumping hotspots are trained to identify waste placed anywhere other than public bins. Each incident triggers a notification to local officials along with relevant imagery for timely investigations and enforcement. The cameras complement signage about penalties for illegal dumping and an online complaint form.
