The SHAPE International Military Police partners with Host Nation Law Enforcement, to provide a quality police force, security, and emergency services to maintain a safe and secure environment for the SHAPE Community.

Community Policing

Working with all sections of the Security and Emergency Services Branch and maintaining close links with SHAPE Federal Police, the Community Police is responsible for building relationships and maintaining links with the SHAPE community, encouraging both to work together toward the common goals of improving security, law enforcement, crime reduction, and safety. The SHAPE community has a right to have an input into its own well-being, and indeed, the solution to many security/crime related issues often comes from the community itself. By supporting the Police and providing information, the community becomes a partner in public safety. The International Military Police is visible at SHAPE and is always accessible to the SHAPE Community. The Community Police is the link between the community and police; to talk about concerns, provide assistance to organisations or groups, or to answer any questions you may have.

Authorized Taxis

SHAPE authorizes four local companies to access the SHAPE installation as an alternative means of transportation. Three taxi services and one airport shuttle service. Regular taxis are not authorized in the 100 area. The shuttle service HG Travel-Autos is allowed in the 100 area. All taxis are authorized to provide services from the 200 to the 900 areas. If you are entering SHAPE in one of the four authorized taxi companies, the driver must show the proper identification and each passenger in the vehicle must show their SHAPE identification card. Failure to follow any of these procedures will result in the taxi not being authorized to enter the installation.
