Idea Submission for The People's Money:
Install more cameras, have more guards patrolling the subways/buses and streets. Camera spots can be determined by voting, but if there is a high crime rate somewhere cameras should be instead.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
When people travel on the subway, they should feel safe from petty theft. However, people do not feel safe in these public spaces.
