Police appeal for public to use 111 for emergency calls only

Brian from New Lynn

Police are appealing to the public to only call 111 in an emergency or life-threatening situation.

The 111 line has come under significant pressure today as a result of a larger than usual volume of calls. “We understand that COVID-19 is having a significant impact on members of our community, and many people are feeling very anxious and unsettled,” says Superintendent Dave Trappitt, National Manager Communication Centres. “However, it is absolutely vital that people only call 111 if they are facing an emergency situation – for example, someone is badly injured or in danger; there’s a serious risk to life or property, such as a house fire; a crime is being committed and the offenders are there or have just left; or you’ve come across a major public inconvenience, like a tree blocking a road.” “Anyone with concerns regarding people who are not self-isolating should email NHCCselfisolation@health.govt.nz.” “All other matters should be reported to police either by online reporting, or by calling 105,”.

All public transport in Auckland will be FREE when the country goes into Covid-19 lockdown, but it can only be used by people who need it.

While there will be no charge, Auckland Transport said people should continue to tag on and off, so passenger numbers could be monitored, and changes could be made depending on demand. Essential workers may be asked for identification when they are travelling, such as a business card, ID card or letter from their employer. People must continue to get on and off the bus using the rear door to minimise contact with drivers. Auckland mayor Phil Goff said it was critical Aucklanders adhered to the rules.
"The lockdown that begins tomorrow night is unprecedented in our history but absolutely necessary to ensure we can shut down the route of transmission and protect our communities. "Every Aucklander must comply with the rules, stay home, self-isolate and only use public transport if needed to perform essential work, or to access essential services. "The better we self-isolate, the sooner the government will be able to ease some of the restrictions."
