The MOC, based at Police National Headquarters in Wellington, is providing logistical, resource and communication support to all districts along the hΔ«koi route.
Major Operations Director Superintendent Kelly Ryan says Police have been engaged with hΔ«koi organisers for many weeks.
βOur discussions with organisers to date have been positive and we expect the hΔ«koi to be conducted in a peaceful and lawful manner,β she says.
The hΔ«koi is expected to leave Northland today (Monday 11 November) and travel to Wellington, arriving at Parliament between Monday 18 and Tuesday 19 November.
βWeβve planned for large numbers to join the hΔ«koi, with disruption likely to some roads, including highways and main streets along the route,β Superintendent Ryan says.
βThe MOC will support our frontline, district-based staff with the management of people, vehicles and activities, while also maintaining central oversight.
βWe will continue to co-ordinate with iwi leaders and our partners across government to ensure public safety and minimal disruption to people going about their daily routine.
βWeβre also well connected with NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi and local councils to ensure road users have up-to-date information and can plan accordingly.
βThe MOC will remain in place while the hΔ«koi is in Wellington and as participants make their way back home safely.β
