Its hard to see if that's advice for L2 or L3
This isn't as clear:

I think it's intended to apply during level 3 i.e. now because it's only been added recently. To quote from that page:
Permitted travel into, out of, or through Auckland
You are permitted to travel into, out of, or through Auckland in limited circumstances.
Limited personal circumstances
You can travel if you are:
*returning to your primary home
*attending a medical appointment, or need emergency medical care
*maintaining a shared childcare arrangement
*travelling into Auckland for the purposes of catching a commercial flight
*relocating a house or business
*to urgently care for a child, or a person in a critical or terminal condition if there is no other person who can provide that care.You do not require an exemption from the Ministry of Health to travel for these reasons — please do not apply.
You should bring, to show at the checkpoint:
*documents — either hard copy or electronic — that support your reason for travel (for example a tenancy agreement, court order, medical note, or appointment slip)
*photo identification. -

@voodoo hearing stories of some getting through with minimal fuss, others practically have to provide their last weeks movements, 3 forms of ID, mothers maiden name, Wifi Password and a Milky bar!

I would have thought your air tickets would be sufficient proof. Failing that whatsapp call your wife from the car and let her ear bash the cop

Idiots could have cut straight to the Milky Bar and saved time.

Honestly, these guys. How the fuck are people supposed to keep track of what you can and can't do? Look at the latest little addition that came with no discussion or announcement
Limited personal circumstances
You can travel if you are:returning to your primary home
attending a medical appointment, or need emergency medical care
maintaining a shared childcare arrangement
travelling into Auckland to catch a commercial flight, if you are allowed to enter Auckland under the other conditions listed on this page
relocating a house or business, or
to urgently care for a child, or a person in a critical or terminal condition if there is no other person who can provide that care. -

@Bones said in The TSF Travel Tips Thread:
@voodoo you meet those conditions don't you?
Its hard to say, other parts of the website talk about returning to your primary home in the context of it being in Auckland. But on the face of that section alone, which I'll be printing and carrying, it looks like it.
I just hate the way they keep on changing it though, it gives me no confidence that they won't change it again in a few days to explicitly rule out what we are doing.

-
@Bones fair point. The 2 things that worry me are
-
That the wording above is actually on the L1/2 Gov page, albeit it mentions L3 in the section too. Its not 100% clear when it applies. And
-
Its a contradiction to the original Order, which says you can drive in if you live in Akl or you can fly in if youre transiting.
I assume the guidance updates the intent of the order, but as someone said earlier, it all depends on the copper you get at the checkpoint.

And the milky bar. Don’t forget the milky bar!
