The New Westminster Police Service Volunteer Bicycle Patrol Program exists with one main focus, to reduce auto crime activity within our city. 

While riding throughout the city, volunteers are asked to give out brochures, reminder notices to vehicles, and speak to the public about auto crime.  During the course of their duties, the volunteers act as ambassadors for the City of New Westminster and the Police Service.



The Volunteer Bicycle Patrol Program, like our Citizens Crime Watch Patrol Program, are not expected nor permitted, to get directly involved in any situation but instead act as 'eyes and ears' and report all suspicious, nuisance, and criminal behaviour to the New Westminster Police Service. 

The New Westminster Volunteer Bicycle Patrol Program is, in fact, a community program.  It is aimed at educating the local public about auto crime activity whilst acting as a crime deterrent during rides through local neighbourhoods.  One of the most important elements of this program is that it serves to alleviate the unreasonable fear of crime that affects our citizens.
