Road Safety

In order to reduce as far as possible the high volume of deaths and injuries on the roads around Devon and Cornwall.

We will liaise with Police colleagues, the Vision Zero team, the public and other Partners to identify areas reported as concerns for speeding or dangerous driving.

We will where possible involve local schools and youth organisations to highlight ways of  young people becoming more aware of their own road safety

We will carry out speed operations as a Neighbourhood Team and encourage the Community to adopt a Community Speed Watch program

Organise Drug Supply

We will be using intelligence led operations to identify and deal with those involved in drug supply and county lines.

We will be patrolling areas where historic as well as dynamic information indicates drug use/ supply.

We will try to identify those vulnerable people who are caught up in the use and supply of drugs or who may be victims of dealers and support them where possible to break the cycle of abuse

We will remain Compassionate and competent and use common sense policing to reduce this problem.

Safeguarding communities from serious violence and anti-social behaviour

This part of the Teignbridge Policing Sectors main priorities for all Policing teams.

We will be patrolling Geographical hot spots where historically there have been issues, but will also be dynamic in responding to reports from members of the public, partner agencies and other intelligence to identify victims, offenders or vulnerable people.

We will use criminal and civil laws to deal with individuals or groups of people causing violence, ASB to reduce offending and support those in our communities suffering from such behaviour.

We will be working with Schools, and other youth provision providers as well as Teignbridge County Council, Devon County Council , and housing providers where necessary to support individuals and identify houses where behaviour is well below what is reasonable.

We will use a compassionate, competent and common sense approach our Policing of our communities
