Antisocial behaviour - nuisance.

Tackling antisocial behaviour remains a priority for neighbourhood policing teams. Officers work closely with residents, partner agencies and local authorities to identify concerns, support those affected and address issues within the community. Reports from the public help officers identify patterns of behaviour, target patrols and take appropriate action where needed. Responses may range from providing advice and education to formal enforcement and prosecution, depending on the circumstances. By working together with partner organisations, officers aim to achieve the most effective and appropriate outcome for everyone involved.

E-bikes/scooters.

The local officer continues to monitor reports relating to the illegal and antisocial use of e-bikes and e-scooters and is working to identify those responsible. While relatively few issues have been reported in recent months, officers remain committed to taking action where concerns are raised. Residents are encouraged to continue reporting incidents involving e-bikes and e-scooters, particularly where they are being ridden dangerously, illegally or in a way that causes nuisance to others. Information provided by the public helps officers build intelligence, identify repeat offenders and target enforcement activity where it is needed most.

Road safety.

The local officer continues to support road safety by carrying out regular speed checks across the area, focusing on locations where concerns have been raised by residents and where speeding is known to be a problem. Using local knowledge and community feedback, enforcement activity is targeted at roads where it can have the greatest impact on improving safety. Drivers found exceeding the speed limit may be prosecuted or offered educational courses to help them understand the risks associated with speeding and the potential consequences for other road users. This ongoing work helps make the local road network safer for everyone who lives, works and travels within the community.
