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.

Policing priorities

  • Priority:

    Action taken:

  • Priority:

    E-Bikes in Oxford City Centre, and regular bikes, specifically Cornmarket Street and Queen Street are still being reported as riding too fast and causing a danger to members of the public, as well as disobeying local signage.
    Cyclists also not using lights on their bikes in the hours of darkness, increasing the danger to themselves, pedestrians and other road users.

    Issued 04 September 2026

    Action taken:

    On 7th June 2026 2026, following on from operations in May 2026, our colleagues from the East Oxford Team and Roads Policing seized over 20 E-Bikes found to be non compliant with the law.
    Numerous Cycling enforcement operations have been planned for the coming months in order to educate and enforce the law.

    Actioned 04 September 2026

  • Priority:

    There is an issue of Street drinking, noise nuisance and general anti-social behaviour at BONN SQUARE, OXFORD. We have seen reduction in the past few months but as the weather is changing we are seeing a continuation of local issues

    Issued 04 September 2026

    Action taken:

    This issue has persisted over the last month and we have continued to see, a huge decline in localised alcohol related anti-social behaviour at the location. We have now issued over 10 Community Protection Notices (CPNS) after those we served Community Protection warnings to continued in their behaviours. The CPNs now carry risk of arrest and prosecution and as a result the behaviours have markedly declined. We have also served Community Protection warnings to prolific noise nuisance offenders, and this appears to have reduced issues.
    Over the summer period we have had a significant reduction in reports of ASB and noise nuisance in the area of Bonn Square. As a Neighbourhood Team we are continuing to patrol the area on a regular basis, where we are enforcing the PSPO emplaced by the council and engaging with regulars who use the area.
    This has been a long running issue within Oxford City Centre so we are keeping this as a strong focus moving forward.

    Actioned 04 September 2026

  • Priority:

    We have received reports from local residents regards concerns of drug related activity in the area of Hinksey Park and around Whitehouse Road and the adjacent River Banks.

    Issued 09 June 2026

    Action taken:

    We will patrol the areas concerned and seek to identify persons involved and take enforcement action accordingly. To date we have undertaken a few enforcement actions and caught 2 people of concern. They have been dealt with as applicable under the law. We will focus on the issue in coming weeks and continue to ensure that the area is safe for all
