Greater Manchester’s transport networks have been bolstered with the addition of new Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).
The ten officers have joined the ranks of the region’s TravelSafe Partnership (TSP), a multi-agency approach set up to tackle and reduce crime and antisocial behaviour (ASB) on the region’s bus and tram networks.
The new officers will provide an increased staff presence on the networks, particularly in the evening and at weekends.
This is the latest move to enhance the TSP and brings the total of new PCSOs that have joined the unit since the summer to 30, with a further 20 set to join over the coming months.
