Tackling Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB)

Issued 01 June 2026

We regularly deploy high visibility patrols to our communities in response to reports of criminal damage, drug dealing and anti-social behaviour involving scrambler bikes and mopeds.

The local policing team have also had productive meetings with partners from East Riding Council, Parish Councils and Neighbourhood Watch groups to listen to community concerns about ASB in their community.


Our officers are also committed to eradicating the harm that the illegal and anti-social use of off-road bikes cause to the communities through our Operation Yellowfin.

Action – members of the Holderness Policing Team will conduct regular high-visibility patrols and partnership working is ongoing to make sure that Holderness is a space for everyone to enjoy as we head into the summer period. We are aware that there is potential for more ASB throughout the summer months due to children being off school, the lighter nights and warmer weather. The neighbourhood team will continue to monitor any calls for service regarding ASB.

Rest assured, where we receive reports of anti-social and criminal behaviour, we will not hesitate to take action. If you witness any such behaviour in your community, please let us know so we can respond, target patrols to the relevant areas and stop criminals in their tracks.

Anyone who wishes to report anti-social or criminal behaviour can contact The Police on 101 or East Riding of Yorkshire Council on 01482 393939

Improving road safety:
Around our schools
Speeding
Off-road motorbikes
Parking and obstructions

Issued 01 June 2026

As with most other areas, road safety is something in which we can improve upon in our rural communities.

ACTION: We hold regular proactive road safety campaigns which include speed enforcement in hot spot locations and supporting the ERYC School Streets Scheme.

As the school term comes to an end, the Community Team will be conducting patrols around the schools making sure that the roads are safe for everyone especially for our young members outside the schools' gates. Our Special Constable and Neighbourhood Team will be out and about in the community with the prolaser, as well as working alongside our Op Yellowfin Team to tackle issues with off-road motorbikes. There will likely be a an increase in the use of off-road bikes in the summer months due to the children being off school, better weather and lighter nights. Op Yellowfin will be made aware of any reports.
