We work with the community and local partners, while also looking at our own data, to come up with priorities for Cromer for the next three months. These are currently: Tackle Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) including vehicle related ASB within the town.

We will engage with our community and partners to identify areas of concern through our online drop in surgery, engagement events, high visibility patrols and social media. We are aware of reports of vehicle ASB on Runton Road carpark. To tackle the issue we will be increasing patrols in the area to educate drivers, making use of police powers and the Cromer Public Spaces Protection Order to divert offenders away from further anti-social behaviour. Speed checks conducted along Runton Road, Cromer and Sheringham. One driver was stopped and spoken to, and another was issued with a section 59 warning. Two vehicles to be issued with section 59 warnings following reports of vehicle ASB at Mcdonalds Cromer. One of the drivers visited at home to issue the warning, with another to be visited.
