About us

Local policing teams are groups of officers dedicated to serving the community. Teams are made up of officers based in the area, supported by additional officers from the wider area. 

Teams work closely with local authorities, organisations, partners and residents to decide policing priorities. This helps teams find long-term solutions to local problems.

  • Priority:

    Nuisance motorcycles.

    Issued 13 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Targeted patrols and information provided by residents have played an important role in tackling nuisance motorcycle activity across the area. Intelligence gathered from the community has helped officers identify hotspot locations, focus enforcement activity and respond to local concerns.

    Through a combination of proactive patrols, targeted operations and partnership working, officers continue to disrupt nuisance behaviour, provide reassurance to residents and improve community safety. We encourage anyone with information about nuisance motorcycles to report it, as this helps us direct resources where they are needed most and take appropriate action against those responsible.

    Actioned 06 July 2026

  • Priority:

    Fly tipping.

    Issued 13 April 2026

    Action taken:

    We have worked closely with the Environmental Response Team to share intelligence, identify offenders and take a coordinated approach to tackling fly-tipping in key locations. This partnership working helps ensure information is acted upon quickly and enables appropriate enforcement action to be taken where offences are identified.

    Officers and partner agencies will continue to work together to identify repeat problem locations, investigate reports and take action against those responsible. Residents are encouraged to report incidents of fly-tipping, as information from the community plays an important role in helping to protect the local environment and prevent further offending.

    Actioned 06 July 2026

  • Priority:

    E-bikes/e-scooters.

    Issued 13 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Regular patrols and community engagement continue to address the antisocial use of e-scooters and e-bikes across the area. Officers provide advice where appropriate, while maintaining a visible presence to deter offending and improve public confidence.

    Through proactive patrols and ongoing engagement with residents, officers are able to identify concerns, gather information and take action where offences are detected. This balanced approach of education, engagement and enforcement helps improve safety, reduce antisocial behaviour and provide reassurance to the local community.
