Police officers say 'Operation Deflect' was a great success, and will be repeated.
The week long initiative targeted specific areas of concern, and aimed to catch people who were flouting the law.
Drugs thought to be cocaine and mephedrone were found, £5,000 in unpaid fines was recovered and eight people were arrested during the seven day period.
Sergeant Ged Power says similar 'focused policing' initiatives will be happening in the future:
