Illegal bikes crackdown in Saddleworth village

Anyone with information about illegal bikers should contact police.

Illegal use of off road bikes are being targeted in a police crackdown on key Saddleworth villages.

In a note to residents they say while bikes can be used across the community with permission, their use in public areas is often illegal and can pose a serious risk to the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users.

Incidents can be reported by calling 101, or 999 in an emergency if there is an immediate risk to safety. Information can be shared anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Police added: ”Your reports help us build intelligence, identify offenders, and take appropriate action, including vehicle seizures. Working together, we can help keep our communities safe and protect our shared spaces.”
