The more you know about the risk,
the less stressed
you will be.

The Hikurangi Subduction Zone represents a significant earthquake and tsunami risk for the east coast of the North Island, New Zealand (25% likelihood over the next 50 years). We look back at the Tohoku Earthquake 2011 to get a sense for the scale and the impact that a rupture of the Hikurangi Fault would have on our people, communities and landscape. Key message, if a quake is Long or Strong, Get Gone.
