The city of New Orleans has announced a new safety plan for Saints games and large events, which includes maximizing police patrols, engaging parking lot owners to hire security patrols, and utilizing smart technology to monitor crime. This comes after concerns about vehicle burglaries and auto thefts during previous events. The plan takes effect this weekend, coinciding with Tulane's top-25 matchup against Ole Miss and the Saints' home opener against the Tennessee Titans. The security measures aim to address safety issues while also benefiting the city economically. Changes to parking arrangements have been made to accommodate the large crowds attending the games.
