We have been focusing our patrols in these areas and will look to enforce and take positive action.

Castle & Priory - ASB & Off-road bikes

The issue of dealing with anti-social behaviour is one of the main priorities for the local neighbourhood. The Dudley Central Neighbourhood Team will continue to conduct regular reassurance patrols within the locality maximising enforcement opportunities minimising anti-social behaviour and potential criminal offences. There will be a working partnership strategic focus with external agencies and internal teams to target this anti-social behaviour. Our team has and will continue to schedule operations with our off-road bike team who are part of our road crime department. We will also work with our internal and the DMBC drone team with a view to tracking those that are causing anti-social behaviour, especially those doing so on off-road bikes, back to their addresses and identifying them so that we can take appropriate action against them.
