"In the past there was no direct presence of 911 in the headwaters of San Vicente and Cabañas. Now 911 will be present throughout the country," Funes said at an event held at the PNC's Transit Subdirectorate. For the implementation of the emergency system in the 14 departmental capitals, the PNC hired 98 people to answer the calls. It also acquired 58 vehicles that will be added to the 325 designated to attend emergencies in the country. Those cars assigned to the 911 system have GPS (global positioning system) devices to monitor agents. - Publicidad - "911 already has a mechanism with which it is possible to intercept, in real time, the location of emergency calls, which will allow police security actions to be executed more quickly," he added. The new platform will replace, according to police authorities, the obsolete 911 structure inaugurated in the late nineties in San Salvador. Funes added that the 911 system will be connected with 60 surveillance cameras in the San Salvador Metropolitan Area. ![Santiago Jaramillo](https://www.ventasdeseguridad.com/images/latinpress/editor-sjaramillo.jpeg) Santiago JaramilloEmail: sjaramillo@latinpressinc.com Editor Comunicador social y periodista con más de 15 años de trayectoria en medios digitales e impresos especializados para América Latina.
