Bike marking and crime tips on offer from Highbridge police

-

Cyclists can have their bikes security marked and discuss crime advice and concerns when Highbridge police hold one of their weekly surgeries in the town’s Asda supermarket next weekend.

The surgery will be held on Sunday February 3rd from 10.30am – 12.30pm, when PCSOs Claire Chambers and Gill Udall will be handing out crime reduction advice, marking property and discussing crime concerns.

Due to bike thefts still being an issue in the Highbridge area, police are inviting cyclists to bring along their bikes to be security marked (as pictured).

PCSOs Claire Chambers said: “There are two ways we can mark them. The first being a free UV marking which adds the owner’s postcode in a number of locations using an invisible marker; the second is using the BikeRegister.com permanent marking system and ownership database. Police are offering the service at a discounted rate of £4 per pedal cycle (normally retailed at £10.95).”
