New research led by Te Herenga Waka–Victoria University of Wellington senior lecturer Dr Jamie Howarth shows the probability of that earthquake occurring before 2068 is about 75 per cent.
Until now, it had been thought to be about 30 per cent, based on sequences of sediment deposited adjacent to the Alpine Fault in northern Fiordland.
Scientists from Victoria University, the University of Otago, GNS Science, the University of California, and the United States Geological Survey also calculated there is about an 82 per cent chance the earthquake will be of magnitude-8 or higher.

Metlink has emailed GBRAI to advise that there is the possibility of ongoing bus driver strike action. With very short notice. While the bus routes shown are not the key Brooklyn/Kingston/Owhiro Bay routes, we know from experience the ripple affect of drivers taken from our services to plug gaps elsewhere. We are circulating this for your information.

Me again :)
My partner and I recently moved into a bus and we as much as we love it we also feel the need to have another space where we can expand a little and use as need be.
What we are after is a little studio/room, can be basic as long as we can throw a couch/bed and a desk in there. We would also like to have street access/a driveway to park the bus, ideally with power/water access.
We are looking anywhere both in town and out of town (Petone or Lower Hutt, as long as it’s on the train line).
We probably wouldn’t be there all the time, basically we would like the option to come and go as we please and use that space as a base.
If anyone could help, I would be forever grateful.
Cheers,
Giulia

GrandFriends is a little charity that combats big issues like isolation and loneliness.
We are the bridge that brings kiwis together from across the generations. By connecting families with GrandFriends, we provide a long lasting “people” solution to loneliness.
Using our years of experience we match like-minded GrandFriends, extending their support networks, so they can enjoy the special moments, share the load - all the while combating loneliness.
You are welcome to apply as an individual - or if you wish to apply with your partner (husband/wife/significant other) as something that you can volunteer with together - that is also very much welcome and encouraged.

The name has been used as a secondary title for several years, but will now be recognised as the official name of the library as part of a commitment to consult with mana whenua throughout the design process.
Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui approximately translates to ‘The window to the wider world’.
In October 2020, city councillors voted unanimously to fix and upgrade the earthquake-prone building, which has been closed since March 2019, and officers were told to explore design options.
This should not be too tough. What are your favourite memories of this gentleman and his store?
