Help set the policing priorities for your local area

A few months ago, you may have helped us form the priorities for our neighbourhood policing teams across Fenland.

By using a combination of views and feedback from the local community and our own data (from recorded crime), we set the below as the top three things your local neighbourhood policing team across March are prioritising this winter, in addition to the ongoing
force-wide priorities.

Priorities for the March team are:

(Covering March, Wimblington, Doddington, Benwick, Chatteris, Pondersbridge, Whittlesey, Coates, Turves, Manea)

  • Drug use and dealing across March, Whittlesey and Chatteris
  • Illegal parking in Whittlesey
  • Speeding in rural parishes (Benwick, Eastrea, Coates, Turves, Wimblington, Doddington, Manea)

While we continue to focus on these areas, we are starting to collate data to inform what the next round of priorities will be going into spring (April to June 2023).

Again, please spare five minutes to complete this short survey to help shape policing in this area.
Kind regards,

A Consultation I Received a Response $$$$

Fens Reservoir Project: Upcoming survey works.

We are writing to provide an update on our proposals for a new reservoir in the Fens.
Our consultation closed on 21 December 2022 after running for 10 weeks. 

Thank you to everyone for providing feedback on our proposals. We have received a great deal of useful and informative feedback, and we will now be analysing this so that we can further develop our proposals. 

So everyone can see the key themes and issues from the consultation, once we have completed analysis of the feedback provided we will prepare and publish a summary of the feedback on our website. 
In order to further our understanding of the site of the proposed reservoir, we will also soon be starting some survey work in the area. Our contractors will need to access various parts of the site of the proposed reservoir land in order to undertake this work, and this will of course only ever take place with the permission of the landowners. 

Anglian Water and Cambridge Water do not yet have planning consent to begin construction of the reservoir – this will be applied for in 2025 following a second round of consultation. These surveys will be used to further develop our proposals and expand our knowledge of the landscape. 
We are actively engaging with national bodies such as Natural England and the Environment Agency and the relevant local authorities to keep them informed about our proposals and any potential impacts on protected sites. We will continue to consult with these organisations throughout the process, including keeping them informed about the outcome of our surveys. Dialogue with affected landowners and residents who live on the site is also ongoing.
Our onsite operatives will also be equipped with contact cards to ensure that any queries are directed to the team. 

Please feel free to email us if you have any questions or queries.
Kind regards,
Fens Reservoir Project Team 

Anglian Water and Cambridge Water are proposing a new reservoir in the Fens that will secure water supply to our customers for future generations. 
To speak to the Fens reservoir team, please contact info@fensreservoir.co.uk.
