Beat officers have been and will continue to provide patrols at local schools at key times to improve the safety of pupils, parents and road users.
During the winter months, the beat will be working with the wider East Leicester Team to tackle road safety concerns as part of OP Syphon addressing issues including speeding, dangerous parking, seat belt usage and more.
During the months of January, February and March the team will continued to address parking issues in the local area, address road safety, and continue working with partner agencies to achieve long term resolutions.
We have recently had some good results at the local school whereby we have taken part in a joint agency approach with the council to the parking issues raised to us.
