Belief vehicles need to be totally banned on Auckland's Muriwai Beach.
A teen died yesterday after a ute rolled on the beach, and two others have serious injuries.
Vehicles are now banned at the beach until Thursday - with people allowed on foot.
Muriwai Community Association co-chair, Clare Bradley, says how vehicle access is currently managed isn't working.
"There is a growing sense that the only way to really manage the safety of the beach, both for pedestrians and for the wildlife that make that part of the beach their home, is to close it."
