Allestree and Darley — Neighbourhood Policing Team
Local policing team in the Derbyshire Constabulary area: contact routes, current priorities and public events.
This Safer Neighbourhood area covers Allestree and Darley. It belongs to the Derby North policing section. Allestree is a residential area approximately two miles from Derby City Centre. It is a suburb which has its own local amenities which include shops, primary and secondary schools, public houses and churches which hold several different community groups. The University of Derby and Markeaton Park lie on the outskirts of Allestree. Darley consists of four key residential areas; Darley Abbey, Chester Green, Westend/Five Lamps and Strutts Park/Kedleston Road. Darley Abbey village joins onto Darley Park and is a popular beauty spot in the summer months.

Current priorities
1. To continue to work with partners to improve road safety. 2. To reduce youth-relates anti-social behaviour. 3. To tackle nuisance and illegal off-road motorbikes.
In relation to improving road safety, we will: 1. Run stop sites in hotspot areas targeting vehicles unfit for the road. 2. Carry out regular speed enforcement in identified areas. 3. Work with community speed watch groups to identify concerns. 4. Use engagement and enforcement to change driver behaviour. In relation to reducing youth-related anti-social behaviour, we will: 1. Work closely with schools to deliver education and intervention. 2. Support opportunities for positive out of school activities. 3. Conduct targeted patrols in the Park Farm area, which has suffered a spike in ASB. 4. Work with partners to support families and address underlying causes. In relation to tackling nuisance and off-road motorbikes, we will: 1. Work with partners to explore access measures to green spaces. 2. Conduct initiatives to stop and deal with riders. 3. Use education alongside enforcement to inform riders of the dangers posed to themselves and the public.
