The 48-hour order came into effect in Tredegar, Blaenau Gwent at 6.10pm on Monday, October 7, and will remain in place until Wednesday, October 9, at 6.10pm.

Dispersal orders give officers the power to direct groups to leave an area if they are involved in anti-social behaviour or disorder, if members of the public are being harassed or distressed or if officers think their behaviour may lead to anti-social behaviour.

Commercial Street in Tredegar is one of the roads affected by the dispersal order. (Image: Google) It covers Tredegar Town Centre, Commercial Street, Gwent Shopping Centre, Bank Lane, Mount Street, Stockton Way, and the surrounding area in Tredegar.
