Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Nuisance vehicles.
Action taken:
Officers continue to carry out targeted patrols in response to reports of nuisance vehicles, particularly during the late evening when most incidents are reported. These patrols help identify offenders, deter antisocial behaviour and provide reassurance to residents. Where appropriate, officers use road traffic legislation and antisocial behaviour powers to address offending, prevent further nuisance and take positive action against those responsible. Residents are encouraged to continue reporting incidents, as information from the community helps officers identify patterns, develop intelligence and target enforcement activity where it is needed most.
-
Priority:
Road safety.
Action taken:
Officers continue to carry out speed enforcement activity in response to concerns raised by the community. Speed checks took place on 9 September 2026 along the A20 through the centre of the village. A further 5 speed enforcement operations are planned before the end of November, alongside additional ad hoc checks at varying times and locations. These proactive patrols help address local road safety concerns, encourage compliance with speed limits and provide a visible police presence within the community. Through ongoing enforcement and engagement, officers continue to work to improve road safety and reduce the risk of collisions on local roads.
-
Priority:
Vehicle crime.
Action taken:
Officers continue to work with residents and local communities to prevent vehicle crime. Patrols are carried out across the area to deter offending, identify suspicious activity and provide reassurance to residents. Information provided by the public helps officers build intelligence, identify offenders and support ongoing investigations. Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant, secure their vehicles and report any suspicious behaviour, as timely reporting can help officers take action quickly and prevent further offences. Through ongoing patrols, investigations and community engagement, officers continue to work to reduce vehicle crime and keep local communities safe.
