Signs saying RAPISTS OPERATE AROUND HERE being put around bridge after 2 rapes and a violent attack

North east Lincolnshire council are having a meeting today to discuss putting signs up around a bridge saying 'RAPISTS OPERATE AROUND HERE' CCTV and lighting is considered disproportionately expensive options 😲 Complete removal of the bridge is also an option We have had TWO RAPES and one VIOLENT ATTACK in the last couple of years on this bridge and all the council want to do is put up signs warning people that the bridge is DANGEROUS Full video in the comments 👇🏻 A petition signed by over 200 residents last year called for action to improve public safety at Fuller Street Bridge, such as lighting, improved signage "to allow the public to make informed decisions" about crossing a bridge where sexual assaults have been reported has been recommended with lighting and CCTV considered disproportionately expensive options. A decision on possible extra safety measures at Fuller Street Bridge, Cleethorpes, is due to be taken at a meeting today, Monday (January 26) after council officers reported back on the options to increase safety It followed the reports of alleged rapes to Humberside Police in January 2024 and February 2025 Cllr Ron Shepherd (Conservative - Scartho Ward), has since held two meetings on the matter, in June and September 2025. At the last meeting, he tasked council officers to report back with costings on possible lighting and CCTV measures, and for greater detail on the bridge's structural integrity and data on reported crime in the area These have now been put together. Based on the data showing Fuller Street has "less crime than the immediate surrounding area" and the bridge "significantly less", a council report concludes it would be a disproportionate level of spend to invest in lighting and CCTV for the bridge, or lighting for the North Wall area Complete removal of the bridge is mentioned as a possible option, with its proximity to the lit Suggitt's Lane footbridge referenced. But the report states public opinion must be considered. Instead, new signage is recommended A review of reported crimes between September 2023 and October 2025 found 294 recorded crimes in the local area, including neighbouring streets like Neville Street. Three crimes have been recorded as taking place at the bridge, two sexual offences and one violence against the person Options include: Lighting and CCTV on the bridge: £7,000 for the lighting, £21,000 to install the CCTV and about £3,000 a year to maintain the CCTV. Standard lighting at North Wall, from Fuller Street Bridge to Wonderland, and from the bridge entrance to the port entrance: potentially up to £325,000, with around £2,500 annual costs, but installation costs could be reduced dependent on permission to install columns behind the sea wall. Solar lighting along the same North Wall section: £200,000 installation costs, with annual costs potentially much less, but dependent on lack of vandalism For bridge lighting, Network Rail permission would be needed. For the North Wall lighting options, it is also recommended that a 110 metre footway be created for safe access between the wall and bridge. This cost has not been estimated. The North Wall options require not just the green light from Network Rail, but also landowner's permission and the Environment Agency's sign-off too. Council officers have also looked further into the bridge's structural integrity "The minimal work required to make this site safe is to fix protective panels over the failed areas," the council report states But it recommends replacement of the parapet mesh to avoid possible future problems, and other works The cost of these is not detailed. But linked to this, the council would have to pay for a legal agreement and track possessions to be reached with Network Rail It is stated these costs are decided by Network Rail and can range from £5,000 to £250,000. "There’s no way to know what it will cost before it’s been created," the report says
