The PSNI, together with representatives of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency carried out a joint operation on Monday last targeting unlicensed vehicles in Newtownhamilton. The move was in response to complaints from local residents regarding unlicensed vehicles and parking issues in the area.
