Chief Wayne Smith and the Shreveport Police Department officially unveiled the department’s new
Mobile Command Center, a major investment in public safety made possible through funds from the 2021 bond proposal. Flanked by Mayor Arceneaux and City Council members, MCC#1 was put into service.

The $1 million state-of-the-art command center will serve as a hub for operations during major events in the city, including Mardi Gras, the Independence Bowl, Holiday in Dixie, Harmony in the Park, and a wide range of neighborhood operations.

“This mobile command center represents another step in ensuring that the Shreveport Police Department has the tools needed to serve and protect our community at the highest level,” said Chief Wayne Smith. “It demonstrates our commitment to professionalism and to setting the standard for modern law enforcement.”

The Shreveport Police Department looks forward to utilizing this resource to enhance public safety and
community engagement across the city.
