The Travel Safe Officer role exists to provide a visible and proactive presence across the Bus Link in Gosport, during evenings and weekends. The officer’s core purpose is to deter and address antisocial behaviour (ASB), reassure passengers, and contribute to creating a safe, comfortable travel environment. This includes interacting with members of the public, supporting transport staff, and responding to reports of disorder or concerns raised by passengers. Travel Safe Officers may issue Fixed Penalty Notices, request personal details, and seize alcohol or tobacco from individuals involved in antisocial or underage behaviour. Through proportionate engagement, education and enforcement, the officer ensures compliance with transport regulations and supports wider community safety objectives. Collaboration is central to the role. Travel Safe Officers work closely with Hampshire County Council, Gosport Borough Council, Hampshire & IOW Constabulary and transport providers. They share intelligence, support joint operations, and contribute data that shapes how resources are deployed. Their patrols are targeted based on evidence and feedback, ensuring that their presence is focused where ASB concerns are highest, strengthening both safety and public confidence.
