Police have issued a dispersal order covering parts of the M1 after reports of cars congregating there and causing a risk to the public.
Police say the vehicles have been driven in an anti-social manner there on Sunday evenings. The areas included in the order covers from junction 26 to 28 of the M1 in both directions, the A611 towards junction 27 and all the surrounding roads within a one mile perimeter of junction 27.
The Section 34 Dispersal Power of the the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 means any vehicles found in a convoy or driving irresponsibly will be removed from the area by police as they look to crack down on anti-social behaviour.
A spokesperson for Ashfield Police said: "This is an area that receives multiple vehicles on Sunday evenings which congregate to drive in a manner causing anti-social behaviour, presenting a risk to the public.
"Any vehicles found to be in a convoy, congregating or driving in an anti-social manner will be moved on from this area."
