Priorities

23 Jun 2022

Working on tackling both an immediate rise in ASB in the Kingsmead Square area and problem solving long term issues.

• A data driven approach, identifying specific locations, times, days, and behaviours. Using this information to created frequent and informed patrol plans.

• Use of our Mobile Police Station to be parked in Kingsmead Square. This allows officers to parade from location. Creating both an increased presence in the area and more opportunity for members of our community to come and engage with us.

•A joint agency approach. Working with a number of partners, including but limited to; Bath City Council, Bath BID, Bath CCTV, Julian House + DHI, and local businesses and residents of the area.

•Engaging with local businesses and residents to recognize the impact local ASB is having on them.

Additional daytime and evening Hi-Vis patrols have remained ongoing thanks to Home Office funding.
New planters installed outside Sainsburys have reduced Anti Social Behaviour that was being caused by rough sleepers.
A further in-person survey was conducted by PCSOs. Residents and businesses again reported seeing a reduction in Anti Social Behaviour recently and compared to this time last year.

We recognise the impact that Anti-Social Behaviour has on residents, businesses and visitors to Bath, especially in such a busy, central area. We are working to tackle the short term rise in these incidents and towards a long term problem solving solution.

- Increasing patrols at key times, using data to inform our patrol plans.

- A joint approach. Working with Southgate Management, Bath BID, B&NES, Youth Connect South West and local businesses.

- Continuing our unpredictable Project Servator deployments.
