Motorists fined for breaching public spaces protection order at Annesley M1 junction

The public spaces protection order covers anti-social behaviour around Junction 27 of the M1 at Annesley Woodhouse.

Two motorists have been given fixed penalty notices for breaching a public spaces protection order in place at Annesley Woodhouse.

The PSPO is designed to target ‘car cruisers’ around Junction 27 of the M1, at Annesley Woodhouse.

A Nottinghamshire Police spokesman said: “This is in place to deal with nuisance vehicles causing persistent anti-social behaviour within the area.

“Officers carry out regular patrols of the area and anyone found in breach of the order could face a fixed penalty notice of £100 and/or a Section 59 notice on their vehicle, in addition to any other traffic offences.

“S59 notices are powerful as, if breached, they could lead to the vehicle being seized by police.”
