Local Priorities

Using a combination of your feedback and our own data, we have set the below as the things your local neighbourhood policing teams across the north of Cambridge will prioritise.

- Vehicle-related anti-social behaviour across the district

Issued: 10 Mar 2026

Status Update

Vehicle Related ASB Queen Edith’s
Officers have included the location as part of their patrol routes. City and South Cambs Council have proposed introducing a public spaces protection order (PSPO) aimed at curbing anti-social behaviour using automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras and existing CCTV to enforce the order. The Consultation period for this ended on 27 March 2026.
Since the last meeting we have had two reports of vehicle nuisance in the area and a dispersal order was put in place around Babraham Park & Ride on 5 April.

We continue to tackle the use of illegal eScooters and eBikes across the city, and the Cambridge City Neighbourhood Team have now seized approximately 300 of these since October 2025.

Combined days of action with other Neighbourhood Teams have seen us tackle vehicle related anti social behaviour on the busway both in and out of the City.

Actioned: 21 Apr 2026

Using a combination of your feedback and our own data, we have set the below as the top three things your local neighbourhood policing teams across the north of Cambridge will prioritise over the next quarter:

- Knife crime

Issued: 8 Dec 2025

Status Update
