Bank Holiday! | Have a safe TRIP

Whether you’re leaving the south west or coming to visit, have a safe and enjoyable summer holiday road trip.

Follow the T.R.I.P. checks every driver needs to perform to keep themselves, their passengers and other road users safe.

TOP UP your fuel or battery, oil and screen wash
REST with planned stops of at least 15 minutes every two hours
INSPECT tyre pressure, tread depth and for cracks or tears before setting out
PREPARE for all weather conditions…it may be very hot, or we may have rain and thunderstorms

We’ll add that SPEED limits are there for your safety, they are not a target. Drive within the limit and to prevailing road, weather and traffic conditions. So, TRIPS: as easy to remember as TRIP.

🚗 Have a great bank holiday! 😎

LATEST NEWS | Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) now in place to tackle anti-social behaviour in the town centre.

Yesterday, a PSPO was introduced in Crediton by Mid Devon District Council, giving police and other authorised officers extra powers to tackle antisocial behaviour and street drinking.

In the restricted area, people are asked to follow instructions and give up certain items if asked.

Prohibitions include:
• Consuming alcohol, or anything reasonably believed to be alcohol, after being requested to stop.
• Having an unsealed container of alcohol, or anything reasonably believed to be alcohol, after being requested to surrender it.
• Consuming alcohol and behaving in a manner that has caused or is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress (this applies individually or as part of a group).
• Remaining within the Crediton Town Centre area after being directed to leave.

With visible signage now in place which highlights behaviours that could be be considered a violation of the order, the PSPO is now enforceable across the town.
