I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Anti-social behaviour - General, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey. We continue to receive reports regarding the illegal use of off-road bikes, scramblers and quad bikes across Billingham. These vehicles can cause significant nuisance, damage to public spaces and present a serious danger to riders, pedestrians and other road users.
The Neighbourhood Policing Team is keen to gather information not only about riders, but also about where these bikes are being stored, maintained, bought or sold. This intelligence is vital in helping us identify those responsible and take positive action.
How you can help
If you have information about:
Locations where off-road bikes are being stored Garages, sheds or addresses where bikes are regularly taken to and from Individuals involved in riding, storing or maintaining these bikes Vehicles used to transport off-road bikes Local hotspots where they are being ridden
Please submit this information through the COPPA app or report it via 101.
When providing information, please include as much detail as possible, such as:
Exact location or address Names or descriptions of those involved Vehicle registration numbers Times and dates Photos or CCTV footage where available and safe to obtain Reporting Incidents
📞 999 if the activity is ongoing and there is an immediate risk to public safety.
📞 101 for non-emergency reports.
📱 COPPA App for intelligence relating to offenders, locations and storage addresses.
All information provided helps us build intelligence, identify offenders and target patrols where they are needed most.
