    10/19/2018 New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens | World news | The Guardian New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens Army convoy brings supplies for stricken South Island town, while navy ship berths in Christchurch carrying hundreds of evacuees Eleanor Ainge Roy in Dunedin Wed 16 Nov 2016 22.38 EST A road has been cleared to the seaside town of Kaikoura on New Zealand’s east coast four days after it was cut off by a magnitude 7.8 quake that devastated the North Canterbury region of the South Island. The inland road to Kaikoura was opened on Thursday morning, but only for trucks and four- wheel drive vehicles as it remained unstable and badly damaged. A convoy of 27 army vehicles loaded with relief supplies was immediately sent to the town. Gale-force winds and heavy downpours in quake-stricken areas continued to slow the pace of relief efforts, although the majority of the 1,200 tourists stranded in Kaikoura had been evacuated by sea and air. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/nov/17/new-zealand-earthquake-first-relief-trucks-sent-to-kaikoura-as-road-opens 1/3 10/19/2018 New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens | World news | The Guardian Nearly 500 evacuees came into Christchurch early on Wednesday morning on the HMNZS Canterbury and were put up in empty student dormitories, where they were offered cooked breakfasts and hot showers after arriving at 5am. Police in Marlborough were using a military Iroquois helicopter to begin checking on isolated high-country farms from the Clarence river to the upper Awatere valley, delivering emergency food and medical supplies to farmers who had gone without assistance since the quake early on Monday.
