Operation Hotspot was launched by the Police and Commissioner’s Office in May 2024, to help tackle anti-social behaviour and serious violence across Hertfordshire.
Home Office funding worth £1m was secured to enable additional, high-visibility foot patrols to be carried out.
These patrols are being conducted on top of normal daily business patrols, targeting specific areas which have been identified as crime and anti-social behaviour hotspots, across all 10 districts.
How safe do you feel in your local hotspot area? Please rate on a scale of 1 - 5. (1 being very unsafe, 5 being very safe)
Please tell us why you feel that way
