Current priorities

Illegal use of off-road and electric motorbikes

We are working with our partner agencies to develop intelligence around the offenders and the hot-spot locations for this type of activity. In addition we are working with our Roads Policing Team to ensure that offenders are targeted and prosecuted and any vehicles are seized appropriately. We also utilising new technology such as the use of drones to assist us in targeting offenders and key locations.

Set: 2026-03-02

Youth anti-social behaviour.

We are receiving reports of youth ASB within the New Harraby area, particularly in the Central Avenue area. We will be proactively patrolling the area and working with partner agencies where appropriate.

You said that anti-social behaviour in the Hammonds Pond area along with the adjacent streets was an issue and within this there was evidence of drugs activity occurring.

We did. The local team have been proactively patrolling the area and seeking to identify those responsible as well as looking to develop intelligence around drugs activity. We will work with partner agencies to drive enforcement activity and continue to patrol hot-spots.
