Positive Action

Hello 

Thank you for responding to our survey.

We have been working hard targeting Off-Road Bikes causing a nuisance to communities and damage to the trails and woodlands.

Today, officers have worked alongside National Resources Wales in an operation to locate off-road bikers on the trails around the Cynon, Merthyr Tydfil and Rhondda areas and stop them from causing further damage and disruption to both members of the public and the environment.

There was only a few sightings of off-road bikes within the Cynon Area and there was less sightings as the operation progressed which is evidence that the operation was successful in deterring the biker's unacceptable behaviour.

There will be similar operations in the future to deter more people on off-road bikes from continuing this kind of behaviour and causing a disturbance to local communities and the woodland areas.

Thank you for your help. It is only by the police and the public working together that we can prevent and detect crime.

Do you need to speak to the police but don’t require an emergency response?

You can make an online report via our website https://www.south-wales.police.uk, send us a private message via Live Chat, or call 101. In an emergency always dial 999.
