Current Priorities
Issue
We as a team have received several complaints from local people complaining about different issues relating to HGV’s. Speeding vehicles Theft remains a high priority especially due to the effects it has on its victims and its community
Action
This varies from parking on pavements, speeding or breaching weight restrictions. We are planning on visiting the local businesses to remind drivers of their responsibilities and to generally respect the community they work in . # We have started to do enforcement with the assistance from the forces Road Safety Team (CREST).Residents have already set up Community Speed watch schemes which are running well and would encourage anyone who is interested in setting up a scheme in their area to email the Speed watch Team We would ask the community to be extra vigilant and to report any suspicious activity at the time the incident occurs on either 999 or 101.Extra patrols have been conducted and property and bike marking has taken place.
