Police say that a Section 35 dispersal order has been put in place in the area of Griffith John Street in Swansea, following issues with anti-social behaviour and other offences in recent weeks.
They say an increased policing presence will be visible in the area over the coming days.
Inspector Andrew Hedley from South Wales Police said: “We have a zero-tolerance approach to anti-social behaviour anywhere in the force area, but over the last couple of weeks this has become a notable problem in this area in particular.
“This is causing undue distress on the many law-abiding residents living within the area. A good number of those committing the anti-social behaviour do not live in the area.
“Our officers will attend the area and will act swiftly to disrupt any form of anti-social behaviour that they see.”
CCTV systems were recently upgraded at the council-owned flats at Griffith John Street in a bid to tackle antisocial behaviour.
