Edinburgh’s brand new City Centre Policing Unit, funded by the visitor levy and matched by Police Scotland, officially kicked off July 2nd with 49 officers ready to patrol the heart of the city—boosting safety, freeing up neighborhood patrols, and gearing up for major events like the Fringe and Festival.
