Almost £50,000 is to be invested in e-bikes for a police force.
West Mercia’s Police and Crime Commissioner John Campion said the bikes would help officers cover longer distances.
A mix of off-road and hybrid bikes would also help the force reach the most rural of communities across the counties of Shropshire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire, he added.
Mr Campion said it was in response to residents’ calls for visible officers.
John Campion says the bikes will help meet community calls for police officers to be ‘visible and accessible’
