Agreed 7th June 2010

Priorities agreed at Neighbourhood Forum meeting:

1. Raymend Road / Victoria Park – Perceived burglary problem
Increase in dwelling burglaries around Raymend Road area. No specific times or days identified.

* Neighbourhood Policing Team to request analysis to establish crime levels in the area and if a burglary problem exists.
* Police will liaise with Safer Homes and arrange for homes to be visited that require crime reduction advice.
* Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) to target the area with specific patrols to provide reassurance and deter burglaries.
* Beat surgeries will be held in the priority area – The Lodge, Victoria Park.
* Police will send letters to residents in the area with crime prevention advice.
* Police will work with Safer Bristol to combat the problem.

2. Oxford Street – Anti-social behaviour, pavement parking and drug dealing
This is caused by groups of young people and adults congregating opposite the Oxford Public House, in and around the shopping complex, side streets and car park area. Some use vehicles which are parked across pavements, intimidate passers by and the relentless kicking of footballs against private and commercial properties is an issue. There is a suspicion of drug dealing activity in the area. Offences are occurring during the day, afternoon and evening, every day, but with the key times being between 5pm and 7.30pm.

* Ongoing Police patrols and intelligence gathering.
* Traffic scheme being progressed by Bristol City Council, including new double yellow lines.
* Beat Manager working with local shops to look at ways to improve the local environment.
* Ongoing support for landlord of The Oxford Public House.

3. Bath Road - Speeding
Cars driving at excessive speeds on the Bath Road near to New Walls. This occurs daily between 10am and 3pm, and evenings.

* Police will liaise with the Traffic Police to combat motorists speeding along the Bath Road.
* Police will engage with the public and arrange a community Speed Watch event.
* Police will letter drop local residents along Bath Road to research the problem.
* Police will liaise with the Road Safety department in Bristol City Council to try and reduce the problems in the area.
