Coun Scott encouraged residents to attend to air their views on the issues, which he said had been ‘particularly apparent’ over the past six months.

“We know that crime, antisocial behaviour and off-road bikes have become a big problem in Arbourthorne,” Coun Scott said.

Coun Scott said the meeting was a result of increased reports of off-road bikers during the councillors’ surgeries in the suburb.

"We need to hear from people and collate these concerns, but most importantly, take action.

"It's about working together as a community, and seeing how we can help people come together in a better way."
