Our local Eston Neighbourhood team will continue to focus on prevention, identifying the riders of the off-road motor bikes/surrons and quads.
We make it a daily tasking of trying to disrupt the minority of individuals that are disrupting the community and causing alarm and distress to residents.
The Greater Eston Inspector continues to hold and chair partnership meetings specifically about the use of Off Road Bikes/Quads and surrons.
We heavily rely on residents/members of the public to provide information on these matters, and it is all in confidence it would never be disclosed outside of the Police environment.
We now have a dedicated Op Endurance Team, which includes plain clothed officers, unmarked vehicles and two surrons for the dedicated officers to use.
This has resulted in over a hundred vehicles being seized a number of them from the Eston area.
We are also using drones to follow the off road bikes/quads /surrons and to find out where they are getting stored.
We attempt to identify all riders/passengers, and they will be dealt with for driving offences.
