New priorities have been set for the Neighbourhood Policing Team area after consultation with the local community. 1. Parking outside the school, Minety - numerous complaints from teachers/parents/carers and residents in regards to the parking of parents and carers picking up and dropping off children at the school. These include blocking drive ways and obstructing the pavement 2. Speeding, Minety - the speed of vehicles travelling along Silver Street and Hornbury Hill towards Upper Minety. 3. Traffic related issues- Oaksey - the weight and speed of traffic using the road through Oaksey. The Holy Cross Church in Ashton Keynes has had tiles stolen from the roof over the weekend of the 8th-10th January. Offenders are believed to have parked in the lay-by next to the church to load the tiles more easily. If you have seen anyone in the area acting suspicious or you saw this taking place please contact either PC Simon Akers or PCSO Sam Walsh by telephone or email as given below. Even though we have highlighted parking at Minety School as an issue we are aware this is a problem at all schools on the area. Just to clarify, both sides of the zig zags outside the schools need be kept clear of any vehicle, except school buses and taxis, for the safety of children attending school. Anyone dropping off or collecting children from school is not to park on pavements, obstruct driveways or park on the corner of a junction. To do so is not only dangerous to pedestrians and road users it is also inconsiderate and illegal and will be dealt with by way of Lastly we have received some complaints in regards to horse riders riding along the road with dogs running unrestrained along behind.
