Jeff Smith MP said: “I have been contacted by a number of constituents expressing their concern about the number of off road motor bikes speeding and performing stunts on roads in south Manchester.

I share this concern and have been in regular communication with local officers from Greater Manchester Police (GMP) to ensure that this issue is being given the highest priority.  I have expressed my concern with GMP on the safety implications for pedestrians and road users alike when these bikes are speeding and performing stunts in such an anti-social way.

If you see bikes in your local area causing problems, then please report it to Greater Manchester Police by calling 101 so GMP can build up a picture of where the hotspots for this activity are across the constituency.”
