gangs  by perryn road bridge

Yet again large dodgy looking people by the railway bridge at around 7 in th evening. quite menacing and unerving to people walking home.be aware.the community police are no longer evident anytime of day!maybe the cold has taken them indoors!

Or Lesley, maybe they are stretched to capacity trying to cover a large area and do the the best they can?Somehow I doubt they are at the station, sitting there drinking hot chocolate and eating Hob Nobs!Carl

I love hob nobs - might get a job as a copper!  ;-)Maybe if you rang the local police station and told them the kids were abusing you as you walked past they might do something?  It works if you're trying to get the council to move rubbish - mention rats ... they usually come running (the council, not the rats).Otherwise get a load of blokes to go down there and "ask" them to leave.  Lots of lovely big Polish lads around probably happy to help.

They are not obviously busy elsewhere,or eating hob nobs as there is nowhere to do so!They didn't threaten me, or abuse me but they were obviuosly up to no good dealing drugs or whatever which can come across as that if you are of the meek and mild kind , or old or have children.They are themselves blokes & polish ones are too busy jumping intoo the park once the gates closed to care!wasters the lot of them!

1. How do you know the police are not obviously busy elsewhere?2. I thought this was by the bridge at Perryn Road, in which case how can they jump in the park from there - are you saying they migrate over to the park afterwards?3. Were you waking alongside the bridge or over it - it amazes me that I see lone women crossing that bridge in the dark at all - at the least there should be cctv around that area. Perhaps some of the £500k "giant pots of Acton" money could be used for that?Carl

I am suposing the police are busy elsewhere as I never see them anymore. I used too!Also different people going into the park(eastern european)to those by the bridge. I never cross it or walk near it, I see the people from the street!cctv probably wouldn't deter them, they would know how to turn it off!

A single Community Police Office spotting patrolling the area a couple of nights ago.

Goodo.I use the bridge irregularly and sometimes after dark - so far have seen nothing suspicious apart from rubbish.

Sara Nathan ● 5326d

My God you are brave nothing would encourage me to walk over it in the dark!

If residents wish to report concerns to the Acton Central team please do so via our phone number 02087212921. This number is linked to our ward mobile so if we are working we will answer. Our shifts range primarily between 10am - 12am with response teams (those in cars and blue lights) providing 24-7 cover. If you are connected to our voicemail we may not be working, if this is the case please call 101 (non emergency) or if a crime is being committed at the time 999. If we are informed of the issue at the time then we will make every effort to get there and deal. I can also reassure residents we are not sat in the office drinking tea. Kind regardsMark Pullen

thank you for the relevant numbers,will have no hesitation in ringing them if there is anything else untoward however cctv on this spot would be useful.
