Crime in Nailsea Youngwood, North Somerset

The local neighbourhood team have received reports from residents of Nailsea complaining about inconsiderate parking during peak school hours in and around Nailsea. 

This includes stopping on zigzags, parking on double yellow lines and causing obstructions on the road.

We may be at your local schools during peak hours to encourage safer parking, if you see us, please say hello.

We are working closely with the council and other agencies to manage these issues. If you do see a vehicle causing an obstruction, please report this to us via online or 101.

 UPDATES

There has been an increase in the number of school patrols to address these issues, engaging with people parking illegally and inconsiderately, giving suitable word of advice to parents/ guardians.

We are working with the school to get messages out to parents/guardians reminding them of their responsibilities when parking to keep pupils at the school safe and reducing the impact on local residents.

We have continued patrols and have liaised with North Somerset Highways with regards to road markings to restrict parking near the schools.

We have received an increasing number of reports regarding thefts from retail premises as we approach the Christmas.

Officers have been attending various locations, conducting hi-visibility patrols and dealing positively with any offences found in the area.

We continue to patrol on a regular basis but rely on the public to report any issues and would encourage residents to report online and by ringing 101 or 999 in an emergency.

As a neighbourhood policing team, we are continuously seeking new avenues to engage with the community and facilitate open communication. Currently, we host a monthly 'Talk to Us' event at the Parish Council Offices; however, we are eager to expand our outreach to involve more residents and gather their feedback.

Should you have any suggestions on how we might increase our engagement opportunities, or if you are aware of a club or group that could benefit from police contact, please do not hesitate to contact us by email through the force website, selecting the ‘My Area’ option.

The night-time economy in policing is invariably a busy period, particularly during weekends. The Nailsea neighbourhood policing team is dedicated to maintaining community safety and will respond firmly to any incidents that arise, with a particular focus on offences related to alcohol and drugs.
