Fosse

Dealing with anti-social behaviour and road safety involving the illegal use of e-scooters and e-bikes across the ward.

We Did: We continue to issue messaging around the dangers of e-scooters and e-bikes, including the fire risks posed. Further Op Pedalfast operations are scheduled in for the near future, with particular focus on our parks and open spaces.

Dealing with the production of class B drugs on the area, in addition to tackling the use and supply of both class A and B drugs in areas where this affects the local community.

We Did: In October an investigation commenced into a male suspected of dealing class A drugs on the Fosse and elsewhere by a male. The NPT supported the beat team by locating and arresting this male, finding him in possession of a large quantity of suspect crack cocaine and heroin. He was remanded into custody and put before the courts. We continue to develop intelligence around class A drugs supply and have further enforcements planned.

Reducing excess speed and improving road safety on the ward.

Unfortunately, training planned for October, which was to improve how we deal with excess speed offences, had to be postponed due to trainer sickness. This will be re-booked. We have conducted patrols around the Newport Street/Beatrice Road area following reports of motorist ignoring the one way system. We have not seen this happening during patrols but will continue to monitor.
