A ‘SHOT in the arm’ is needed to hammer home the message that littering and other anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated as Craven comes out of lockdown. Councillors fear that the expected relaxation in coronavirus restrictions next month, will result in a major influx of visitors to Craven and the Dales.

Enforcement officers will be deployed to problem hot spots and will have the power to give out fixed penalties, heard Craven Council’s Policy Committee meeting.
