Current Priorities
Issue
Highway obstructions.
Action
Officers respond to reports of pavement or highway obstructions and assess the situation. If there is no ongoing obstruction, they may consider whether other offences have been committed. These obstructions are often caused by local residents or businesses.
Issue
E-Scooters and/or nuisance bikes.
Action
Beat officers and Neighbourhood Task Force officers take proactive action against individuals found riding e-scooters or electric bikes that exceed legal limits. These vehicles can be seized, and offenders may receive penalty points on their driving licence.
Issue
Fly tipping.
Action
Beat officers patrol areas affected by fly-tipping and work in partnership with the Council’s Waste Management team to conduct joint operations. They also carry out checks on waste carriers’ licences and inspect vehicles suspected of transporting scrap to ensure all documentation is valid and compliant.
