CONCERNS have been raised over 'dangerous' off-road motorbikes being driven through part of a Flintshire town.
According to North Wales Police, the vehicles have been driven through the Holway area of Holywell recently.
They have been driven on roads and/or public footpaths, police officers say.
PCSO Kate Horne of the NWP Flintshire North team raised concerns over the 'dangerous' incidents via the NWP Community Alerts team.
She urged anyone riding the vehicles to think about the dangers they can pose to themselves, as well as pedestrians and children.

PCSO Horne said: "We have seen a recent increase of reports regarding Off Road Motorbikes being driven on the roads and/or public footpaths particularly in the Holway area.
"Riding Off Road bikes in these areas is dangerous for not only the rider but also, passengers, other road users and pedestrians. In addition, there are many children who are often out playing in this area.
"We are not here to spoil the fun, however it is our priority to keep people safe.
"Off Road Bikes should only be used in authorised designated areas and with the correct safety equipment.
"If you have images/video footage or knowledge of who the bikes belong to with descriptions, please let the neighbourhood policing team know by either reporting on 101 using our online web chat."
