Petition launched to stop Southend seafront launched


A PETITION to “Save Southend seafront” from another weekend of road closures has been launched by furious business bosses.
The closure of Western Esplanade to stop car cruisers using the Golden Mile as a drag strip left businesses “empty” and sending staff home.
Bosses have claimed that senior police officers told traders and councillors at a joint meeting on Monday that the seafront “doesn’t need to close”, due to the introduction of 50 police officers on the seafront this summer.
The petition urges Southend Council not to re-introduce the seafront closure this weekend.

Southend seafront incident: Three men taken to hospital after assaults


 
“Although Southend remains a safe place to live and work, we do understand that some crimes have a higher community impact so to provide some additional reassurance we have brought in extra resources from across the force to increase our visibility. This will continue throughout the summer which will mean people will be seeing more of us, more frequently.
“We are also working with other agencies and key stakeholders to ensure we have the information to focus our patrols at the right places, at the right time.
"That means if you do intend on committing crimes in our town or around the borough, we will never be too far away and the likelihood is you will be arrested.”
