1 – Anti-social behaviour: We are currently experiencing issues with anti-social behaviour in the town centre area.
• Once youths have been identified we will visit them with their parents/carers and Anti-social behaviour letters will be issued.
• We will continue to target the areas, engage with the youths and take the relevant action.
2 – Residential burglary: There has been an increase in burglaries in the area. We are looking at different approaches to deal with these issues such as increased patrolling, home security advice, burglary follow ups and Bike and Property Marking events in the aim to stop people becoming repeat victims of crime.
• 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.
3 – Road safety: Road safety remains a key concern locally, particularly in relation to speeding vehicles
• We will conduct high-visibility patrols
• We will conduct speed awareness operations at identified locations.
• We will work in partnership with local parking enforcement to address areas of concern and improve compliance
• Enforcement will be carried out when necessary
