Reduce security costs by up to
0%
Infrastructure and civil engineering projects are often remote, linear and exposed, with minimal on-site presence outside working hours. These sites face a high risk of theft, vandalism and trespass, especially when materials, plant or fuel are left unsecured.
WCCTV supplies live monitored temporary CCTV systems that are purpose-built for these environments. Our systems operate without power or internet, can be installed quickly and are monitored in real time by NSI Gold Accredited partners.
Whether you're delivering highway upgrades, bridge works, drainage improvements or embankment stabilisation, we help secure the site from start to finish. Every deployment includes installation, monitoring, maintenance and full technical support.
Live Monitored CCTV for Linear and Remote Sites
Securing infrastructure and civil engineering projects isn’t straightforward. These sites are often large, spread across multiple locations and without access to power or internet. WCCTV’s live monitored CCTV systems are designed to:
Deter theft, trespass and plant damage
Secure compounds, access points and high-value assets
Provide oversight across remote or unattended worksites
We deliver a fully managed service that removes the security burden from your team. Every deployment includes:
Equipment hire, delivery and system setup
24/7 NSI Gold Accredited live monitoring and mobile keyholding
Maintenance, diagnostics and full technical support
Access to live and recorded footage via app and desktop
Whether you’re working on highways, flood defences or infrastructure upgrades, WCCTV provides reliable protection that fits the job.
Built for Infrastructure Projects of Every Size
We handle installation, monitoring, maintenance and relocations. Your team doesn't have to manage the kit or chase third parties. We keep things simple and reliable so you can stay focused on delivery.
Our systems do more than record footage. They deter intruders, support live monitoring, and provide video evidence for incident resolution, reporting, and project oversight. They also double as time lapse video recording devices to document your major projects.
All of our security cameras and systems have a strong visual presence backed by additional features such as live audio challenges, flashing lights and alarms - all of which to deter threats before they escalate.
You can rent our systems for as long as your project phase runs. When you're done, we collect them. No storage, no servicing and nothing to manage after the work is complete.
Log in through desktop or mobile to view footage, check deliveries or monitor progress. Or leave the monitoring to our NSI Gold Accredited partners and receive alerts only when action is needed.
As compounds move or new areas open, your security moves with you. We support every relocation to maintain coverage without extra hassle.
Live monitored CCTV reduces security costs by up to 88% compared to manned guarding. You still get visibility, evidence and fast response, without the overheads.
With no power or internet required, our systems are ideal for roadside works, drainage projects, embankments and other remote or hard-to-access areas.
Instant Coverage for Large, Remote Sites
Our Rapid Deployment CCTV Towers are purpose-built for infrastructure sites that are hard to secure. They provide live monitored coverage without needing power or internet, making them ideal for highways, bridgeworks, flood defences and remote compounds.
Standing 7m tall and painted in high-visibility yellow, each tower acts as a strong visual deterrent. They are fitted with HD cameras, infrared sensors and live audio challenge capability, allowing threats to be identified and responded to in real time.
Towers can be powered by solar panels or fuel cells, depending on your site conditions. They are easy to reposition as work progresses and can be deployed for short-term or multi-phase use.
Whether you’re securing a stretch of road or a rural compound, WCCTV Towers provide fast, effective protection with full support included.
Targeted Detection for Vulnerable Site Areas
The WCCTV Hornet is a perimeter intrusion detection system designed to protect the most exposed and high-risk areas of infrastructure sites. It’s ideal for temporary fencing lines, isolated compounds, fuel storage areas or access points where additional coverage is needed.
Each Hornet unit has motion detection, a 360° camera, visual deterrents and live audio challenge functionality. When movement is detected, an alert is sent to our NSI Gold Accredited monitoring partners, who assess the situation and take action.
The Hornet Can Be Deployed To:
Temporary boundaries and fencing gaps
Remote or unsupervised compounds
Fuel and plant storage zones
Entry points to long linear worksites
Fast to deploy, simple to relocate and built for harsh environments, the Hornet adds an intelligent layer of protection across large, evolving sites.

End-to-End Site Security, Handled by Experts
Managing security on a large, high-risk site is one more thing your team doesn’t need on their desk.
WCCTV provides a fully managed service that includes everything from installation and monitoring to maintenance, relocations and support.
We assess your site, install the equipment, configure the system and monitor it live through our NSI Gold Accredited partners. If something changes or stops working, we fix it fast. If the site layout evolves, we reposition the system.
You don’t need to review footage, deal with false alarms or chase a helpdesk. We take care of it all, so your team can focus on the job.
Flexible Security Without the Long-Term Commitment
Infrastructure and civil engineering projects rarely stay in one place for long. Work areas shift, compounds move and security risks change from one phase to the next. That’s why WCCTV offers a rental model that fits the way you build.
You can hire systems for short-term or long-term use, with no upfront investment and no responsibilities once the project ends. Most of our clients choose rental because it keeps things simple. There’s no need to manage servicing, storage or future redeployment.
When your work is complete, we collect the equipment. If the next phase needs coverage, we are ready to deploy again with minimal delay.
Rental gives you the flexibility to adapt your security as the site changes while keeping full control of your budget and requirements.
We Don’t Just Record Crime. We Stop It.
The video below shows how our live monitored CCTV systems detect threats and prevent incidents in real time. Most intruders leave immediately after hearing the live audio challenge or seeing the visual deterrents. If they don’t, our monitoring partners coordinate with keyholders or police to respond fast and keep the site secure.

Real-Time Intervention That Stops Crime
Our systems don’t just record footage. They detect threats, trigger alerts and enable real-time intervention before damage or theft can occur.
Each system uses motion detection to create a virtual perimeter. When movement is detected, an alert is sent to our NSI Gold Accredited monitoring partners. They dial in live, assess the site in real time, issue an audio warning and escalate the incident to police or site contacts.
How We Respond to Threats:
Motion sensors detect movement in restricted areas
Our operators connect live to assess the situation
Audio warnings are issued to deter intruders
Police or keyholders are contacted if necessary
This proactive approach helps stop theft, vandalism and disruption before they impact your programme. You stay protected and informed without needing to manage anything yourself.
Professional Site Attendance for Out-of-Hours Alerts
When an alert is triggered out of hours, someone has to attend. WCCTV’s mobile keyholding service ensures that responsibility doesn’t fall on your site team.
Our licensed keyholding partners respond quickly, access the site safely and follow agreed protocols to assess and manage the situation. Whether it’s a confirmed threat, a triggered alarm or a site inspection request, you get a fast, professional response without having to send your own staff.
What the Service Includes:
Rapid response to verified alerts
Access for emergency services or contractors
Security checks and incident response
Clear reporting so you stay informed
It’s a safer, smarter way to maintain control without pulling your team away from the work that matters.

Securing What Matters Most in Remote Environments
Story Contracting was appointed to deliver a vital bridge replacement scheme at Invercoe in the Scottish Highlands, working on behalf of The Highland Council and Transport Scotland.
The works were part of a broader flood alleviation programme aimed at protecting the local community from severe weather events.
Given the site’s remote location, challenging access and high value of on-site plant and materials, Story required a security solution that could operate without fixed power, act as a strong visual deterrent and provide full visibility across the works area.
WCCTV supplied a Rapid Deployment CCTV Tower with integrated time lapse functionality. The Tower was monitored live by our NSI Gold Accredited partners, providing round-the-clock security and peace of mind for the site team.
Time lapse footage captured throughout the project also helped support public engagement and stakeholder reporting.
