Current Priorities

Issue

Road safety can be categorised as speeding either in general or in the community. Road safety can also include improper use of the road and road traffic offences.

Action

Where speeding is a concern the beat team will carry out speeding operations at sites of community concern. If road users are found to breaching the speed limit they will be dealt with appropriately at the roadside or via fixed penalty notices.
There has been an issue raised this month on Broughton Road, Croft. PCSO Keane has been liaising with the volunteers to conduct a speeding operation.

Issue

General ASB could be targeted harrassment or general nuisance behaviour.
Reports of nuisance motorbikes where reported is a strong issue for residents as they can cause a significant level of risk to other road users and pedestrians when they are used on the road and driven dangerous or at excess speed.

Action

General ASB can happen anywhere but where reports are received the beat team will take appropriate action by patrolling the location and identifying any perpetrators and taking appropriate action against them. This includes nuisance motorbikes.
Officers visited Croft and Huncote as there was a report of motorbikes being ridden anti-socially, follow up enquires were conducted to identify those involved.
