Road safety issues.

Issued 14 April 2026

Speed checks have been carried out in areas where residents have reported concerns about speeding and unsafe driving.

On Trinity Road, one driver was arrested for driving while over the legal alcohol limit and has since been charged to appear in court.

In Repton and Kennington, 2 vehicles were seized after officers established, they were being driven without insurance. These seizures were the result of proactive patrols and information provided by local residents.

Following reports of motorcycles being ridden on footpaths and in local parks, officers have increased patrols in these areas to deter antisocial behaviour and respond to concerns raised by residents. During one incident, officers observed a rider using a moped in an antisocial manner on Beecholme Drive. The rider failed to stop for police and continued onto the cycle and pedestrian path near Ashford Rugby Club before being detained. The individual was arrested on suspicion of several offences, including dangerous driving and failing to stop for police. During a search, officers found and seized 2 catapults and a quantity of cannabis. Officers will continue to patrol local footpaths, parks and open spaces to identify offenders, address antisocial behaviour and help keep the community safe.

Antisocial behaviour - nuisance.

Issued 14 April 2026

Officers have been working closely with a local housing provider to tackle serious antisocial behaviour and drug-related activity at a property in the Repton area. Following repeated reports from residents, a full Closure Order was obtained for the address. A Closure Order is a legal measure that allows a property to be closed when it is associated with significant crime, disorder or antisocial behaviour. This action has successfully disrupted the criminal activity and antisocial behaviour linked to the property, helping to improve the quality of life for nearby residents. Anyone who enters or attempts to return to the property in breach of the Closure Order can be arrested and brought before the courts. Officers will continue to work with partner agencies to address issues of this nature and protect local communities from crime and antisocial behaviour.
