City dispersal order is extended

A dispersal order for a Bristol suburb has been extended after police said it had been "largely effective" in reducing antisocial behaviour.

A force spokesman said pockets of "unacceptable behaviour" at the north of Gloucester Road still caused a nuisance to residents and businesses.

"This extension will help us crackdown on those who are responsible for causing misery to others," he said.

Signs have been put up in the area to warn of the three-month extension.

The order covers much of the Filton ward between Filton Avenue to the A38 and Bristol border and also includes the area between Gloucester Road North to the junction with Filton Avenue on the A38 and the Bristol border at Monks Park.

All streets inside the boundary including Filton flats and Elm Park are covered by the order.
