Current Priorities

Issue

Motorcycle crime and anti-social behaviour

Action

Operation Capio has involved officers tasked on dedicated enforcement days alongside the Local Authority Community Safety Team. The police drone has been deployed to help target known offenders.

Issue

Anti-social behaviour around the High Street and transport hubs

Action

Op Maple has been developed to put in place high visibility police presence at metro stations and transport hubs. This has been complemented by the effective use of dispersal powers and early intervention, working with our multi-agency partners. Project Shield has seen the deployment of dedicated neighbourhood officers in hot spot locations with committed patrol time.

Issue

Shoplifting

Action

Operation Paradise was launched to ensure local neighbourhood officers can target repeat offenders whilst also offering victims crime prevention advice.
