Summary
Knife crime fears are being tackled with eye-catching temporary metal arches popping up across Leicestershire venues ahead of the World Cup — not to stop you from having fun, but to remind you you’re in a safe space. Focused on Ashby and Coalville, these visual deterrents are part of a wider safety push that includes tougher licensing checks, anti-spiking tech, drink-driving crackdowns, and even taxi spot checks. Street wardens and CCTV teams are on high alert, while fire services and security staff are stepping up. Officials urge fans to plan ahead, travel safely, stick with friends, and know where support is available — because everyone’s safety is the top priority as the tournament kicks off.
