The Roosevelt Island Public Safety Department (RIPSD) in New York City provides safety and security service to residents of Roosevelt Island, and the Manhattan and Roosevelt Islands stations of the Roosevelt Island Tramway, because of the contract that the State of New York made with New York City in 1968 which gave the state a 99-year lease on the land.

The department protects the island's property including all facilities by patrolling certain contracted residential buildings 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but the New York City Police Department is responsible for providing policing service on Roosevelt Island. RIPSD officers enforce all laws on the island.

The department has approximately 40 public safety officers who patrol the islands less than 1 square mile in area. On September 21, 2009, the department opened its new command center at 550 Main Street which permanently monitors an island-wide camera system and every vehicle that comes onto the island, as well as cameras on the Manhattan side of the tram, along the route and inside the tram cars. Public safety officers also monitor cameras in the Roosevelt Landings housing complex.
