PCSO armed robbers. Thompson and his colleague, PC Tim Brown, arrived in a police vehicle and he got out to see what was happening while PC Brown parked the vehicle. PCSO Thompson walked in to the middle of a robbery involving two masked men armed with a lump hammer and a sledgehammer. He leaped on one of the offenders and they grappled on the floor, while the other robber repeatedly hit him in the head with the lump hammer. PC Brown ran in to help and the pair struggled with the violent criminals who tried to fight their way to the getaway car. They managed to handcuff one of the robbers; who had previously been to prison for robbery and since release had committed four violent offences with weapons. The other robber was later caught using DNA. PCSOs are an integral part of our effort to keep communities safer and feeling safer.

  • Penalty Trial to Tackle West Yorkshire Train Fare Evaders
    NEWS RELEASE 16 November 2017 Penalty trial to tackle West Yorkshire train fare evaders Northern is to tackle fare evaders in West Yorkshire with the trial of a new approach to penalty fares. The trial, which will be conducted on the Airedale and Wharfedale lines, will see the introduction of on-the-spot fines for people who haven’t bought a ticket before boarding a train. From 6 December customers travelling without a ticket on a Northern train anywhere between Leeds and Bradford Forster Square, Leeds/Bradford and Ilkley, or Leeds/Bradford and Skipton, could face a penalty fare of £20. Paul Barnfield, Regional Director for Northern, said: “Sadly there is a minority who believe they have a right to travel without buying a ticket. Their selfish actions reduce the overall income of the rail industry and, as a result, reduces the money available to invest in further improvements to the railway. “Everyone who travels by train should have a valid ticket or pass. Or must be able to demonstrate they have made every effort to buy a ticket before they boarded. “If they are unable to do either of these then, from 6 December, our authorised collectors will be on hand to either issue £20 fines or ask customers to pay double the cost of a single ticket to their destination.” As part of Northern’s ongoing modernisation of the rail network, significant investment has been made in introducing new ticket machines to give customers more choice and greater ease when buying their tickets. Paul added: “We have invested in new state-of-the-art ticket machines at all stations on the Airedale and Wharfedale lines.

    Burley Parish Council Representations to the Sun Lane Planning Inquiry Planning Submission 16/07870/MAO Burley Parish Council - Representations to the Sun Lane Planning Inquiry 1 Executive Summary As it is located along a key road and public transport corridor, Burley should make a contribution towards meeting the District’s needs for housing and employment. Indeed, the Parish Council maintain that proposals for housing development on sites within the settlement boundary for Burley village will be supported when they would not result in the loss of an open space identified as being important to the community (source: Burley Neighbourhood Plan Policy BW4 p15) The Parish Council are not opposed to more new homes in the village and indeed fully supported the planning application for several new housing developments such as new homes at Greenholme Mills (149 homes), but the proposal for 500 homes at Sun Lane poses some significant challenges, specifically: A Burley-in-Wharfedale as a Growth Area: i) The planning authority contravene the definition of a growth area since there is little by way of existing employment in Burley-in-Wharfedale, and no new employment or external economic activity being planned for this area ii) Given recent residential developments, the number of homes the village is capable of supporting without significant improvements in infrastructure, is at its upper limit. As a result, the Parish Council would maintain the village has been wrongly identified as a local growth centre B Core Strategy: i) BDMC has not yet revised
