BTP Southport local team will have high visibility patrols over bonfire period

Over the next few days and evenings Southport Local Policing Team will be on the network. With targeted visable patrols will be making sure everyone can travel in safety. Reassuring our railway community is an important part of what we do.

You can contact us by text on 61016 or by calling our control room on 0800405040 in an emergency dial 999.

Our priorities

• Prevent physical and verbal assaults on staff members to increase positive outcomes, ensuring that there is a effective communication with victims.
• Reduce violence, serious public order offences and anti social behaviour.
• Safeguard the public and reduce delay on the railway by reducing trespass incidents at hotspot locations.
• Maintain an average handback time of under 90 minutes for non suspicious incidents.
