The June report by the town centre Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) says “Over the last month we have once again seen a sharp increase in the report of bicycle thefts within the town. The neighbourhood team have been working on identifying possible suspects through CCTV … ”
So be careful. Their advice is “Ensure you have locked your bicycle securely to an immovable object using a good quality lock, your bicycle should be locked even if only leaving it for a matter of moments.“
Don’t ever leave/lock your bike in the alley between Lloyds Pharmacy and The black Swan!!
The town centre needs better bike parking facilities with CCTV above each one
