Far North mayor details border setup as Northland goes to level 3

From Checkpoint, 5:25 pm on 2 September 2021

Northland joins the coveted level 3 club from 12am Friday, after 27 wastewater samples taken from across the region came up clear of Covid-19.

That means Auckland will be completely cut off from the rest of the country with road blocks to the north and south as it stays in level 4.

The Far North Mayor has been calling for a by-pass for those needing safe passage past the supercity and to other level 3 areas. John Carter joins Lisa Owen.
