Buckingham Town neighbourhood

Local priorities

The following priorities have been identified by the community and the police:

Anti-social behaviour. We have received reports of anti-social behaviour around the park areas of Buckingham, in particular the Chandos Road Park and the Skate Park and have contacted the council. We work in partnership with local authorities in conducting regular patrols on each area to ensure we deal with any anti-social incident, issues of rubbish disposal and preventing the legitimate use of the park areas by younger children. We utilise the No Drinking Legislation, Yellow/Red anti-social behaviour cards and we deal with any offences accordingly.
Road safety issues. We have reports about speeding issues across Buckingham, as well as specific problems with Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV) travelling through the town centre. The most recent problem areas for speeding problems are Tingewick Road, London Road and Moreton Road. We will be conducting regular speed check operations utilising advice and enforcement options.
Crime priorities - burglary and violent crime. Our patrols will be focused towards both dwelling burglaries and non-dwelling burglaries such as the various businesses in the town especially with the warmer nights arriving. We will also be continuing our operations and work with our partner agencies to tackle any issues resulting from the night time economy and alcohol or drug related crime.

These are being dealt with by your neighbourhood policing team in partnership with residents and other agencies. Progress will be reported in the Neighbourhood updates.
