Wisbech topped the list with 113 incidents, March came second with 33, Whittlesey third with 11 and Chatteris bottom with just eight.
The council says of the 40 “positive enforcement outcomes” detected in July by CCTV, there were 13 arrests, 15 assisted arrests, eight warnings given and four fixed penalty notices issued.
