Christchurch Tsunami Warning System survey

Christchurch’s new tsunami warning system is to be tested on Sunday 22 July at 11am for one to two minutes.

Twenty-two sirens have been installed along Christchurch’s coastline from Waimairi Beach to Sumner and will be audibly tested for the first time on this day. This test is important so residents can identify the sound the sirens make to know when they need to evacuate the coastal area.

We'd like to hear your thoughts on the Tsunami Warning System test and that warning sounds are effective in the event of a real Tsunami.

Thank you for providing feedback.
