Status Update

Residents previously asked us to focus on the following issues:
Reduce youth-related anti-social behaviour in Cricketfield Lane and Hadham Road, Bishop’s Stortford.
• Neighbourhood officers met with staff at the community club to discuss the issues and encourage reporting.
• Targeted patrols at the end of the school day has resulted in a reduction of reports to police.
• Regular patrols by PCSOs in the Harding area has resulted in no more reports of anti-social behaviour or off road bike use.
Reduce reports of road-related offences in Harlow Road in Sawbridgeworth.
• Regular traffic operations have been carried out on Harlow Road and surrounding areas tackling speeding, mobile phone use while driving and cross-border criminality.
• The number of speeding vehicles has decreased. We continue to work with Essex Police to ensure the road is not used as a route for serious and organised crime.
