Off Road Motor Bikes for Bridlington Police Officers

Friday, 30 June 2023 06:00

By Matthew Pells

Police Officers in Bridlington have been given off road motorbikes as part of an operation to tackle antisocial biking.

The four bikes are being funded as part of Operation Yellow Fin.

Inspector Andrew Beadman says specially trained officers will be using the bikes to help provide education and awareness to off road bikers.

Bridlington Police station is set to become home to the four off road police bikes.

The new bikes are going to be used as part of a drive to tackle anti-social and dangerous riding.

Inspector Beadman says Bridlington will become the hub for the operation in East Yorkshire.

Op Yellowfin was originally launched in 2018 in Hull to tackle the crime associated with motorbikes and off-road bikes.

It's now being expanded across the force area.
