Face masks appear vending machines Auckland

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Face masks are now gracing vending machines at transport stations around Auckland.

The masks feature in 42 machines at bus and rail stations along with ferry wharves.

Auckland Mayor Phil Goff has praised the initiative.

“The more simple and convenient we can make it to wear a mask, the greater the uptake will be," he said.

“This will mean passengers who may have lost or forgotten their mask can get one quickly and easily and avoid missing their journey."

AT has bought 1500 masks to go into into the machines.

Aucklanders can buy a pack of four masks for $9.

What do you think of the initiative?
