Police have shared that the safety of the public is their top priority and these tunnel lanes will be monitored. Where possible, use alternative route for travel at this time.

***UPDATE: 9.45am: Mt Victoria Tunnel lanes, east and west-bound, are currently CLOSED. Motorists are asked to avoid SH1 from the airport and eastern suburbs into the city via the Mt Victoria Tunnel and instead use Evans Bay or Newtown when travelling city-bound. ***

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
