Local crime hot spots to be revealed online Other places to be included are bus and coach stations, ferry terminals, motorway service stations, petrol stations, police stations, sports grounds, race tracks, theme/adventure parks, parking areas, pedestrian subways, further and higher education buildings, supermarkets, theatres and concert halls, conference and exhibition centres. The level of information will vary from one force to another and features will be gradually added over coming months. Nick Herbert, the policing minister, said:"Our crime mapping website is continuing to evolve and revolutionise the way people access crime data. The public appetite is clear with 453 million hits to the website since its launch. We have listened to public demand for even more detailed information. Information is power - and crime mapping helps transfer power back to local people. Together with the election of Police and Crime Commissioners later this year we are helping the public to hold local forces to account. Theresa May, the Home Secretary, said the Government was "giving the public more information than ever before about crime and policing in their area through street-level crime maps." "Since October the public have been able to use the police.uk website to see how their force performs in a range of areas like crime rates, quality of service and victim satisfaction," she said. By May, crime maps will show the public what happens after a crime has occurred - what action the police took and what the criminal justice outcome was. You'll be able to see if the criminal was arrested, charged and sent to prison. Giving a speech on police reform in central London, Mrs May said: "Armed with the information from those crime maps, people can attend their local neighbourhood beat meeting and hold their local police to account for their performance. That will help drive up local policing standards and help drive down local crime.
