The residents of Marlow have voted Speeding as one of their top concerns. The team will work to plan various days of enforcement and speed checks on roads around the area.

Most recently, the team have appealed for information relating to loud vehicles speeding along Dedmere road and surrounding areas. The speeding was seen a week after a 12 year old was involved in a serious injury road traffic incident on Station road (a little bit further down the road.) As well as working with the public to try and identify those responsible, the team will look to plan speed enforcement in response to the speeding and dangerous driving in this area. The suspect involved in the RTC has since been charged with four different driving offences.

As highlighted by the recent community survey, burglary has been voted as a top issue for the Marlow neighbourhood team to focus on. As the winter months approach, burglary will become a priority force wide.

Monthly “Have your say” events continue to be conducted in locations around Princes Risborough, the focus of these events is not only to listen to local concerns but also to offer crime prevention advice to residents. Advising people on how they can make their homes unattractive prospects for burglars will play a large part in reducing and preventing burglary. Nighttime and evening patrols in hotspot and rural locations continue to take place with the aim to detect and deter burglary and any other offending.
