Nuisance motorcycles.

Issued 03 February 2026

We are taking proactive action against motorists who are not following road traffic laws. Officers have been carrying out high‑visibility patrols in affected areas, completing speed checks using handheld devices, and stopping and reporting drivers where appropriate. Officers also give advice and education to drivers whose behaviour falls below the expected standard.

This work is carried out alongside colleagues from the Road Safety Unit and partner agencies, including the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and Dover District Council. Working together helps us take a joined‑up approach to improving road safety.

Officers also speak with local residents to provide reassurance. Any ongoing concerns raised by the community are shared with Kent County Council Highways so they can consider longer‑term solutions, such as improved signage or traffic‑calming measures.

Antisocial behaviour - nuisance.

Issued 03 February 2026

We have been carrying out targeted patrols in areas affected by nuisance antisocial behaviour. Officers have spoken to those involved to give advice and clearly explain what behaviour is expected.

Officers have also spoken with local residents to gather information, monitored locations where repeat issues have been reported, and shared relevant intelligence to support longer‑term problem‑solving. Where needed, officers have worked with partner agencies to address the underlying causes of the behaviour.

This work is ongoing in the area.
