ISSUE: OFF ROAD MOTORCYCLES
ACTION: The team conducts patrols in various areas to target this problem.
Recently we have refreshed visits to garage forecourts to gather intelligence and request that premises do not provide the fuel. You may have also seen other leaflets requesting information about who owns these bikes and where they are kept. Please keep reporting this information via 101 or crimestoppers.
nnWe have forged good links with landowners to try and prevent land being used in the first place. This work continues.
nnOur rural crime/Off road bike team conduct regular patrols with Rotherham South. We have had some considerable successes most recently two individuals found on stolen off road bikes. These are seized and destroyed. The offenders are going to court.
nnAnyone found with or using off road bikes unlawfully will be engaged with. They may have the bikes taken from them. We are working with partners at RMBC to look at tenancy enforcement should this behaviour be a breach of a tenancy agreement.
nnWork is always ongoing in this area as the problem is large and widespread. Please continue to report activity and more importantly report who owns these bikes and where they keep them.

It was an unreported problem and once we were made aware conducted patrols targeting youths causing annoyance to staff and the public. This has led to a massive reduction in issues and the facility is there to be enjoyed peacefully.
