Guarding & response in Secunda: local notes
Contractor gates around the plant are staffed in rotation, with ID checks and vehicle inspections that need disciplined, briefed officers. In Secunda's townhouse complexes, a guard rota in the evenings and over weekends is often cheaper than a full-time post. Trichardt and Evander are a short drive away, so ask which control room covers each, and how a patrol is logged. Large community events usually need traffic control as well.
