We will work with partners to prevent anti-social use of vehicles, which have caused significant disruption to the local community

***Update***

There have been no reported vehicle ASB at this venue for the last 7 weekends.

The longest period since the start of 2024 was 3 weeks.

This suggests that the partnership work between North Acton safer neighbourhoods team, ASDA and the Met police Safer Roads Team has delivered for the local community.

We continue to monitor the situation.

Initially we have worked at creating a positive working relationship with ASDA, both at store level and at corporate level.

The response from ASDA has been extremely positive resulting in them committing resources to design out the issue at this location but also assisting the Met with enforcement action.

The first phase of work was completed by ASDA on 15/12/24 when they added speed humps to the roundabout.

This denied the use of the roundabout for the vast majority of those attending for this purpose. As a result attendance shift from 9:30pm on wards to later after 11pm. This de-conflicted the groups with legitimate users, with the group waiting until customers had left to enable them to use the main body of the car park.

ASDA have confirmed that the second phase of work are due in the next fortnight, this will see a permanent redesign of the road about, along with barriers to prevent access to car park out of hours, which we hope will further deny the group use of the main car park after hours.

Further investment by ASDA has enabled the safer roads team to take enforcement action against those attending. This helps both with the issue here in Park Royal, but also pan London and even nationally.

The safer roads team working with ASDA review all evidence from any car meets and follow up with the relevant enforcement.
