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.

    • Heights Lane ASB
      Reports of anti-social behaviour involving double parking, and suspected drug usage attracting local youths during evenings.  Anti social behaviour in the vicinity of the shops and drug misuse in the Heights Lane area, occurring daily between 18:00 and 00:00 hours. 
       

    Issued 01 September 2026

    Action taken:

    1. High-visibility patrols have been conducted regularly in identified hotspot areas, leading to a noticeable reduction in off-road bike activity during peak times.
      The specialist off-road bike team has been deployed on multiple occasions, resulting in Section 59 warnings being issued and vehicles being seized where appropriate. Increased reporting from residents has helped officers build a clearer intelligence picture, allowing for targeted enforcement and quicker responses.
      Community engagement has improved, with residents reporting feeling more reassured and supported. Whilst this issue is still ongoing several meetings have been held at the golf club which have acted as a deterrent.   

       

    2. Heights Lane ASB – Positive Outcomes

      Targeted patrols between 18:00 and 00:00 hours have resulted in a visible reduction in vehicle-related anti-social behaviour.
      Officers have successfully gathered intelligence on key individuals and vehicles, leading to disruption visits and enforcement action.
      Engagement with local businesses has strengthened intelligence sharing and supported early identification of incidents.
      Increased reporting from the community has enabled faster response times and more effective interventions.

      We encourage you to keep reporting these incident this is your community.

    Issued 01 September 2026

    Action taken:

    1. a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; } School Parking Issues -VISION ZERO 

      There have been ongoing concerns regarding vehicles parking irresponsibly outside schools during drop-off and pick-up times, creating safety risks for pupils, pedestrians, and other road users. In response, joint patrols have been carried out with council parking enforcement officers during peak times, alongside continued engagement with school working groups to promote awareness and encourage safer parking behaviour. These have continued at the beginning of September on the reopening of school. 

      Positive outcomes:
      These coordinated efforts have led to an improvement in driver behaviour, with fewer reports of dangerous parking at key times. Increased enforcement activity has resulted in drivers being more mindful of restrictions, while ongoing engagement with schools has strengthened long-term education around road safety. Feedback from schools and parents indicates a safer environment for pupils arriving and leaving school.

    2. Illegal Parking Near Mosque – Kensington Street

      Concerns were raised by mosque representatives regarding illegal parking during prayer times, particularly a caravan obstructing Kensington Street and causing access issues. Patrols have been conducted during peak prayer times, with enforcement action taken where necessary, including the issuing of Fixed Penalty Notices. Liaison with Bradford Council Parking Enforcement has also taken place to address the removal of the caravan if it is not moved voluntarily. Engagement with mosque leaders has been maintained, alongside the use of social media and leaflets to raise awareness of parking regulations.
      Positive outcomes:
      As a result of these actions, obstruction on Kensington Street has reduced, improving access and safety for local residents and worshippers. Increased visibility of enforcement has encouraged greater compliance from drivers, and ongoing communication with mosque representatives has strengthened community relationships. Awareness campaigns have helped reinforce expectations, leading to a more considerate approach to parking during busy periods.
