Newsletter NL59 Beat Team September

There have been ongoing concerns regarding vehicle speeds within the Sileby area, raised by both residents and local stakeholders. The Beat Team will work to address these concerns through the use of high-visibility speed enforcement and monitoring in identified hotspot locations. We will continue to engage with the community to raise awareness of road safety, provide education around responsible driving, and work with partners to identify and implement appropriate measures to improve safety for all road users.

Work with partnering agencies to tackle reported Anti Social Behavior in the village and local parks. Those identified will be given warnings about their behavior using an incremental approach. Conduct extra patrols in the area and identify offenders with a view of seizing the bikes that are causing the issues. Increase in Patrols in the evening and deployment of ASB car to target the persons involved.

Officers will liaise with the community of those affected to provide crime prevention advice and discuss security measures. What we are going to do: We will carry out high visibility patrols in identified hotspot areas to deter offenders and offer reassurance to the community. Officers will engage with victims and nearby residents to provide crime prevention advice and discuss suitable security measures. We will work alongside partner agencies and local groups to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen home security across the area. Targeted enquiries and intelligence led activities will be conducted to identify suspects and disrupt burglary related offending.

We have been actively collating residents' concerns and information regarding speeding issues in key locations across Sileby to help identify hotspot areas and inform our problem-solving approach. The Beat Team has worked with relevant departments to deploy the speed camera enforcement van at identified locations within Sileby, targeting areas where concerns have been most frequently reported. We will continue to carry out targeted speed checks and high-visibility patrols in hotspot locations, providing a visible police presence, educating road users, and taking enforcement action where appropriate to improve road safety and address community concerns.
