An NWP spokesperson said: "Following concerns raised, regular checks will continue to be carried out by our officers and local policing teams on the A5156 Llan-y-Pwll link road in Wrexham.
"Particular concerns have been raised regarding speeding vehicles and anti-social driving – including noisy exhausts from modified vehicles and harsh acceleration.
"A split second of inattention or poor driving can change lives forever. Everyone using the roads has a personal responsibility to keep themselves safe and not put others at risk.

"We will not tolerate the roads to be used as race tracks, and although we cannot be everywhere, we could be anywhere, so those intent on driving dangerously can assume we won’t be far away.
"We will use all of our available powers – including the issuing of Section 59 warnings, meaning if anybody receives two of these in a 12 month period their vehicle will be seized."
