Working with the Police, and partners, the Council will introduce a range of crime prevention measures in Croydon town centre, particularly North End and West Croydon Station and Thornton Heath.
These will include installing high-visibility security cameras in known hotspots and removing street furniture to deter offenders from gathering.
The Council will also introduce Safer Croydon Partnership Pods, a series of huts in crime hotspots.
These will act as a contact point where people can access services and focus on supporting children travelling to and from school.
Crime statistics show robbery down 16%, shoplifting down 18.7%, knife crime down 19.5%, and knife-related robbery down 26.8%.
