The Melton town north neighbourhood beat covers the north area of Melton Mowbray town from Asfordby Road in the West around to Saxby Road in the East and includes the Nottingham Road, Scalford Road and Thorpe Road areas. The beat is served by the Melton Borough Wards of Sysonby, Egerton and Newport.

The beat is particularly busy and is a residential area containing two local authority housing estates, some privately owned properties, industrial premises and a large Tesco supermarket on the edge of the town. Within the beat there is also John Fernley College, two primary schools and Melton Country Park all of which give rise to differing demands.

Current Priorities

Issue

ASB:
The community have raised the issue of Anti-Social Behaviour in various locations across the beat including Nuisance Bikes, Loud Cars and Youths.

Action

The Beat continue to conduct daytime and evening patrols around areas that have been highlighted as hotspots for ASB across the beat as well as linking in with Melton Borough Council and Local Schools to reduce the number of incidents.

The hotspot areas at the moment are largely located within the Country park. Due to the summer holidays approaching patrols will continue to be carried out at different times.

please continue to report any issues of ASB so we can be made aware

Issue

Drug Activity:
The community have raised the issue of Drug use and dealing on the Melton Town North Beat.

Action

The beat team continue to conduct targeted proactive patrols around areas where suspected drug activity is being conducted. We have conducted a number of warrants and arrested several people over the last few months.

The police are working closely with the council in relation to closure orders for any properties identified as drug dealing locations, and this work continues.

Issue

Complaints have been received following vehicles speeding along various routes through the beat - including Nottingham Road, Thorpe Road, Melton Spinney Road and Tennyson Way.
