Hawke’s Bay Police Increasing Resources For Long Weekend
Police in Hawke’s Bay will be working hard to ensure the community remains safe this long weekend.
Hawke’s Bay is expected to get an influx of visitors for its anniversary tomorrow; Hawkes Bay A & P Show; Six60 concert; and a gang-related celebration in Hastings.
“People can expect to see police on our roads and at many of the events that are on this weekend,” says Inspector Sycamore, Hawke’s Bay Area Commander.
Road Policing teams will have fatigue stops and impairment checkpoints in and around Hawke’s Bay to ensure roads are safer over the weekend period.
The first of these was over the lunchtime period today in Bridge Street, Wairoa where weary travellers were able to enjoy food, drink, and a rest.
Police encourage people to adhere to the law and wish everyone a happy and safe long weekend. Pay attention to the latest conditions and you can check your journey on NZTA's Journey Planner.
