Our neighbourhood priority is to tackle anti-social behaviour linked to electric bikes, particularly dangerous riding, noise nuisance, and intimidation of residents. We will work with partners to identify hotspots, carry out targeted patrols, and engage with offenders to prevent escalation. Enforcement will be coupled with education to raise awareness of legal requirements and safe riding. We will use intelligence-led approaches, including community reporting and CCTV where appropriate, to disrupt persistent offenders. Our aim is to improve safety, reduce harm, and reassure the community by taking a firm but fair approach to those misusing electric bikes in our area. -
