Current priorities

Retail crime prevention & reduction Drug Supply Youth-Related ASB Off-Road bike nuisance

Dealing with anti social behaviour from off road bike activity and speeding and inconsiderate motorists is also a priority in which we will be looking to arrange a number of traffic operations in the coming months. We are also committed to gathering intelligence related to organised crime to help us tackle issues such as drug supply. Our priorities are to help reduce and detect burglary offences which we do by assisting with CCTV enquiries, high visibility patrols, crime prevention surgeries and local operations
