Far North District Mayor John Carter told Checkpoint there are some serious questions that need answers regarding lockdown.
"How can Wellington have some cases and yet go to level three, we don't have any in Northland, and we're still tied in with Auckland. And we're still tied in with Auckland because of Warkworth, which is 30km south of our Northland boundary."
But he said in Northland they are taking the risk of Covid-19 seriously. Businesses continue to put at risk by lockdown, he said, and he is asking for a safe route through Auckland for the rest of the country to get to north.
