Police to set up checkpoints north of Auckland

Following the announcement that Northland will be moving to Alert Level 3 at 11.59pm tonight, Police will be establishing a number of checkpoints at Auckland’s northern border.

Operational planning is well advanced ahead of the Alert Level change for Northland, and Police will begin setting up these northern checkpoints from early this evening.

Northland Police will continue to be highly visible and operate checkpoints and random stops inside their district, however they will no longer be located at the three fixed checkpoints locations that have been operating for the past week.

Police continue to engage with iwi around the country, and particularly with regard to the management of the northern and southern boundary checkpoints.

The northern Auckland checkpoints will be set up again at the following locations:

• SH1/Mangawhai Road (Twin Coast Discovery Highway)
• Mangawhai Road / north of Coal Hill Road
• Black Swamp, west of Rako Road
• Mangawhai Road and Cames Road
• Mangawhai Road and Ryan Road
Note:  Mangawhai Road also known as Twin Coast Discovery Highway
