Bedworth West Team Working With Partners
Bedworth West SNT Team covering Keresley are working closely with the local housing groups in order to reduce Anti-Social Behaviour in the area. This will also include looking closely at occupants tenancy conditions.

Reduction in Nuisance Motor Bikes on the Heath Ward
Bedworth Heath PCSO's have recently increased their patrols in the public land to the rear of Newdigate Primary School/Cardigan Road due to complaints of nuisance motorbikes.

Due to this they have so far issued 4 Section 59 warnings to offenders, which means if these people re-offend their bikes will be seized. This has also led to a positive decrease in complaints made to the police.

YOUR TEAM'S CURRENT PRIORITIES

Parking problems on Bowling Green Lane – caused by school traffic.
Parking across driveways and parking on pavements. This is the entire road between the allotments up to the Cross Keys Pub. This includes parking on the double yellow lines. Parking also blocking entrance and exit to Cross Keys car park which means deliveries to the pub are held up meaning large delivery wagons have to park further up the street, which causes additional problems.Key times are 8.20am until 9pm and then 2.10pm until 3.30pm Cars are also leaving their engines running so nearby houses are being subjected to the noise and fumes.
Actions to be taken: Police/Pcso's to patrol area and take positive action.
