Nothing is done to prevent it, so it will continue for ever and ever, Amen.

The best answer is to prevent the Pikeys from coming here every summer.
In order to come here from Ireland, they must board a ferry, caravans, lock, stock and barrel. Hardly unnoticeable!
After we are properly out of the EU, we can decide who can and can't come here by imposing the requirement for visas. We know who they are. We know why they come here every year. We know the damage they do and their criminal activities. Don't let them in. OUR decision.

Re: Travellers
In field gateways that are not often used, the farmers round here either lay boulders, sawn off telegraph poles, or dig a trench.Thing is, EZ said the Common is huge, not just a little village green type thing, so I can't see anyone could put enough boulders/poles/trenches right round the entire area.

Some are still here. They are eventually moved on, having destroyed their temporary camp site, only to set up again a few miles away.
This is not a very good answer, in fact I'm sure the Pikeys just laugh about it.
