Priority 1 - Vehicle Nuisance

Details

Vehicle Nuisance from illegal parking and anti-social driving are a concern in Framlingham town centre. Youths in their vehicle congregating on The Elms car park and Market Hill and speeding around the area on weekend evenings between 7pm and midnight you have told us are of particular concern. Also illegal parking on Market Hill causes disruption to the market, business and the public during business hours 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday.

Objectives

  • To reduce the number of vehicles and drivers causing nuisance.
  • To support effective traffic management within the towns, targeting those motorists who park inconsiderately / illegally.
  • To reduce the requirement of Police resources to attend regular complaints of this nature.

Updates

Recently we worked together with Suffolk Fire and Rescue to hold a ‘Learn and Live’ event that was attended by a number of local young drivers. The event aimed to educate drivers, particularly new young drivers about the consequences of anti-social driving. If you would like to find out more about this programme contact PCSO 3091 Abbott on 01473 613500 or Jacqueline.Abbott@suffolk.pnn.police.uk

We also continue to pro-actively target speeding drivers by use of speed guns and cameras with the assistance of the Roads Policing Unit.
