Security Considerations in Eindhoven

In the city center, the shopping streets lie close together and right next to the station, with many bars and restaurants around Stratumseind. As a result, stores deal with long opening days, busy late shopping evenings and a crowd that changes quickly in the evening. Officers in luxury and brand stores focus on access management, escorting staff at opening and closing and calm intervention during street disturbances, in coordination with city center management.

Eindhoven attracts many international workers because of the technology sector in the region, including Veldhoven. Offices and campus sites require strict visitor registration, protection of confidential areas and officers who speak fluent Dutch and English. During Dutch Design Week in October and the GLOW light festival in November, the city receives large numbers of visitors, which requires extra attention to pedestrian routes, loading and unloading times and access to sites in Strijp-S and the city center.

PSV matches at the Philips Stadion, within walking distance of the city center, affect crowds and access to stores and offices on match days. Eindhoven Airport on the west side of the city also brings a steady flow of business visitors. A sound schedule accounts for these peak times and for the travel time of relief officers between the city center and sites on the edge of the city.
