Road safety and speeding are one of the top priories for the area. The beat team complete speeding enforcement operations on a regular basis where issues have been identified. Our teams will patrol areas where speeding and other driving offences may have been reported and can use ANPR technology to identify offenders.

Speed enforcement operations have been taking place by the neighbourhood team out in the Fosse Villages, offenders have been dealt with accordingly.
The Fosse Villages beat team will conduct a speeding operation when available and commitments allow.
Launching in December on local areas is Operation Flux which is dedicated to tackling local road safety issues. We have already identified some areas that will be targeted but also looking for other local issues such as Speeding, Weight limit breaches, Street racing, E-Scooter use, targeting drink and drug drivers and general Fatal5 issues.

Reports of nuisance motorbikes where reported is a strong issue for residents as they can cause a significant level of risk to other road users and pedestrians when they are used on the road and driven dangerous or at excess speed.
This is a particular issue in Sapcote as highlighted by a recent beat surgery.

The beat team will be monitoring reports of nuisance motorbikes throughout the Fosse Villages. When reports are received we will carry out enquires to identify perpetrators and take appropriate actions to disrupt them.
A Warning letter was issued to a male in Sapcote in relation to riding his mini-motorbike in an anti-social manner after receiving complaints. Allegedly he has disposed of all of his motorbikes so hopefully there should be no further issues.

General anti-social behaviour is a key priority for the area. The team will regularly review concerns in relation to these issues and look to target offenders and engage with communities to seek a resolution. The current issues the beat team are dealing with are in Croft and Sapcote. Where perpetrators of ASB are identified they will be dealt with appropriately.

The local neighbourhood team have identified local hotspots of ASB and are continuing to be patrolled.
Each month if any new concerns are raised these are investigated thoroughly and added to the local patrol plan.
Mid November saw the beginning of Anti-Social Behaviour Week. The week of action targeted anti-social behaviour and looked to disrupt individuals who choose to cause harassment, alarm and distress to the local community. Your beat team increased their high visibility patrols in locations where you've reported issues. ASB takes on many different forms, from aggressive, noisy or abusive behaviour to neighbourhood issues such as drugs. We work with partner agencies such as local councils, housing and wellbeing services to tackle and prevent ASB using a problem solving approach to achieve the best results.
