Hamilton is waking up back in lockdown following the confirmation of two new cases in Waikato. 

As well as the city, Tamahere, Raglan, Ngāruāwahia, Huntly and the rest of the Waikato District have moved to Alert Level Three. 

Other towns, including Cambridge and Te Awamutu remain in Level Two.  

Hamilton Mayor Paula Southgate told Tim Dower everyone is being trusted to play their part. 

"Hamiltonians, people passing through Hamilton, people living on the outskirts of Hamilton, they've all got the pay their part. Because if they don't this, won't work as soon as we'd like it to."
