Anti-social driving, including the seasonal demands on the road network

We are engaging with local communities and stakeholders to listen to their concerns surrounding anti-social road related issues.
We continue to support and promote force-wide campaigns, targeted operations with specialist units, and road-related activity including Operation Downsway deployments.
We will also liaise with local community speed watch groups, assist in conducting speed checks, as well as encourage residents to utilise the Operation Crackdown service for reporting any road related concerns.

Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB)

The Neighbourhood Policing Team continues to carryout regular patrols, focusing on areas where reports of ASB have been made.
We work closely with partner agencies to tackle this type of behaviour, identify those responsible, and manage persistent offenders and locations. We also continue to carry out intervention work with local schools and youth groups through our dedicated youth officers, to divert any young people who may be involved away from this pattern of behaviour.

Illegal/antisocial use of electric scrambler bikes

Patrols will continue to tackle illegal use of these bikes. Ongoing work to increase awareness around the illegal use of these bikes/e-scooters is taking place and intelligence gathering to identify and disrupt those individuals’ using bikes in the commission of crime continues.
