No holiday visitors for Auckland, regional border to stay put - a podcast by RNZ

There will be no school holiday ski-trips or wh?nau visits for Aucklanders across the regional Covid-19 border, with the Prime Minister's confirmation that the city will remain shut-off from the rest of the country regardless of a drop in alert levels.
The hard border also means no one coming into the city for the school holiday, killing any hopes of increased foot traffic in the CBD, as Auckland counts down to the busy pre-Christmas season.
Heart of the City chief executive Viv Beck joins Lisa Owen with her reaction.
