Local Priority Issues

We regularly speak to local residents to establish what issues they may be experiencing in their area. We set up to three local priorities for each policing area three times a year. These are based on local crime statistics, information from partner agencies and feedback from the community via our local priorities survey. 

The priorities for this area are currently:

Pen y Bont Football Club

You said there are parking issues at the club.

We are going to ensure there is a visible presence on bigger match days prior to the match starting and to assist people with more appropriate parking. We will continue to engage with management and issue enforcement notices when necessary.

Obstructive parking across the ward

You said that parking is an issue outside the shops on High Street

We are going to continue engaging with local businesses to encourage them not to cause obstructions. 

The word cloud below represents the issues that local residents have recently highlighted in the survey as priorities for their area (including some that say "I have no issues").

Word clouds are graphical representations of word frequency that give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently. The larger the word in the visual below the more common the word was in the survey.

Your feedback is important and the more we get, the better we can understand and deal with the issues raised. Please click on the button below to have your say on local issues. Please do share your feedback every few months so we can be sure we have your current views.
