There are scenes of confrontation at Parliament this morning as Police and forklift workers arrive with concrete blocks to reinforce the perimeter of the occupation.
Videos and photos from the scene show protesters gathered at the Aitken Street intersection by Archives New Zealand while trucks with huge concrete blocks are placed on the road.
Protesters can be heard yelling "hold the line" and "keep it peaceful" as officers work to form a barrier against the rush of people.
Forklifts filled with concrete blocks are also arriving on Featherston Street where protesters have been seen climbing onto the trucks trying to stop the barricade.
Reporter Charlotte Cook is in Featherston Street.
