A GOVERNMENT website has been launched to show people whether or not their area will be subject to additional coronavirus lockdown rules when the new three-tier alert system is launched tomorrow.
The system will split the nation into three levels of alert - medium risk, high risk and very high risk - depending on each region's infection rate.
The more severe the alert issued, the more lockdown measures will be put in place to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Scroll down for a full list of medium, high and very high risk areas.
Most areas will be placed in tier one, the medium risk category, with lockdown restrictions remaining the same.
This will see the continuation of the rule of six and the 10pm curfew on hopsitality venues such as pubs and bars.
Those areas placed in tier two, high risk, will be subject to increased lockdown restrictions.
People in these regions will not be allowed to visit other households in both public and private indoor spaces.
The rule of six will continue to apply in outdoor spaces, including public gardens.
Most of the high risk areas have previously been affected by local lockdown measures.
Areas placed into tier three, very high risk, will be subject to the most stringent restrictions.
These will be implemented in areas where "transmission rates are causing the greatest concern, based on an assessment of all the available data and the local situation," the government said.
"This includes incidence and test positivity, including amongst older and more at-risk age groups, as well as the growth rate, hospital admissions and other factors."
In high risk areas, people will not be able to mix with other households indoors or in private gardens.
The rule of six is allowed in public spaces such as parks and beaches.
"Pubs and bars must close, and can only remain open where they operate as if they were a restaurant - which means serving substantial meals, like a main lunchtime or evening meal," the government said.
"They may only serve alcohol as part of such a meal."
People will also be advised not to travel in or out of these areas.
Non-essential retail, schools and universities will remain open in all levels.
