North Yorkshire now has the challenge of being surrounded by Tier-3 regions. Residents from a Tier-3 should only travel to a Tier-2 for essential journeys, and not for shopping or a night out – essential reasons includes for work.
If it that we are only advised not to travel outside our area, please explain why we are being fined. In France it is illegal and therefore clear. Not only that, movement in limited to 20kms..by law!
