The 5.6 earthquake that hit Newcastle, New South Wales, on December 28, 1989, is easily Australia's most destructive quake. It left 13 people dead and more than 160 injured and an estimated damage bill of $1 billion.
Waiting times for ships held in Newcastle's vessel queue have risen to 10-11 days, levels last seen at the end of March this year, just after an earthquake and tsunami struck Japan's eastern coastline and caused a temporary decline in the country's
With climate change affecting weather patterns, the possibility of a natural disaster dwarfing the $4.3 billion in damages caused by the Newcastle earthquake in 1989 remains pertinent. Should one or more occur in a given year, the dynamics of the

NZ In Tranzit: Western Newcastle residents "left five days without ...
Local Member of Parliament Clayton Barr commented ""Five days, that's a long time to be without transport." According to this news report from ABC Newcastle he is worried some people are left house-bound because of the patchy bus service. "Mr Barr says many people are often forced to pay hefty cab fares or simply stay at home. "The most important thing that people can do and that we can offer people is the opportunity to get out and mix and mingle within their community". This blog is mostly about public transport and social infrastructure in Christchurch, and transit around New Zealand. Also tracked; transit developments in similar sized cities in Canada and Australia, kindred in demographic patterns, for added perspective and inspiration. NZ in Tranzit blog covers some of the new transit technology and discusses public transport concepts in general, as well. Because the blogster's day-job is in a high profile customer industry to preserve some degree of privacy he appears only as a rabbit in his profile, albeit using his real name. In May 2011 the nature of this blog was shifted to being more a newsmedia watch - Tranzwatch - most the opinionated stuff has been separated out into the comments section, which anyone can contribute towards. Longer articles written by the blogster are subtitled NZ in Tranzit. Christchurch is a city of metropop c 400,000 in Te Wai Pounamu, the southern of the larger islands of NZ. Public transport is operated under the auspices of a regional council with bus operations (and those of one small cross harbour ferry) tendered out to private operators including one owned by the City Council, Redbus. We have a modern clean fleet of buses which offer fairly frequent services to all city areas. The city has been quick to adapt new technologies such as low-floor buses, smart-card (arguably the best in the world!), GPS and Real Time signage and interactive text, and online type information systems. Our busiest route is The Orbiter, a service that circulates around the middle suburbs, and the ring of shopping malls, high schools and the city University about 4-5km from the centre of town Christchurch also has restored trams operating on a central city circuit. Note [May 2011] - Sadly, due to two huge earthquakes (that took 182 lives) and multiple aftershocks much of the central city of Christchurch will be closed to public access for up to a year to allow the demolition of 900 severely damaged buildings.
