Gwent Police cover an area of 600 square miles bounded by Abergavenny in the North, Newport in the South, Chepstow in the East and Caerphilly in the West.

The Gwent policing area is mixed, rural and urban, and the road network carries large volumes of traffic through the M4 link to the East, which now incorporates the Second Severn Crossing.

For general policing purposes the Gwent Police area is divided into four divisions, which are illustrated on the map and each division is led by a Divisional Commander. Three of the divisions are territorially based, the fourth holding a forcewide operational role based at headquarters.

Each division has an operational and a CID responsibility supported by crime management and Family Support Units. The Force Criminal Justice Department is based at Newport.

Major emergencies and instances of serious crime are co-ordinated through D Division.

'A' Division Ch Supt Kevin Price
