Current priorities

1 – Road Safety/Speeding Vehicles/Parking 2 – Drug use and drug dealing 3 – Residential burglary

1 – Road Safety/Speeding Vehicles/Parking Road safety remains a key concern locally, particularly in relation to speeding vehicles, unsafe parking, and vehicle obstructions. • Conduct high-visibility patrols and speed awareness operations at identified locations. • Work in partnership with local parking enforcement to address areas of concern and improve compliance. 2 – Drug use and drug dealing Residents have raised concerns regarding drug use and suspected drug dealing within the community. • Gather and develop intelligence relating to individuals involved in drug-related activity. • Carry out proactive work to disrupt drug use and dealing, while working with partner agencies to offer support and diversion opportunities where appropriate. 3 – Residential burglary Although there has not been a recent increase in reports, burglary remains a concern for local residents. • The Safer Neighbourhood Team will host regular home security events, offering advice on how to protect properties. • Conduct targeted evening patrols in areas that are more frequently affected, with the aim of deterring and identifying offenders.
