Current priorities
E-Bike robberies
Work continues around this location, with additional hot spot policing patrols and the involvement of specialist resources, including drones and roads policing units. The neighbourhood team are working to identify storage locations for stolen bikes and have recently been successful in returning several bikes to their owners. As part of this drive several bike marking events have taken place and there will be more in the coming months.
