Evacuation Planning
Evacuation Routes
During disasters, many roads, bridges & tunnels will be closed by local government or by situation. Therefore:
Always think of safety first.
If you are to evacuate from a danger zone, do it before the event.
Know your evacuation routes.
Know your problem areas - flood zones, poor drainage areas, fire zones, etc.
Make a detailed evacuation plan with contingencies.
Develop or know safe zones for emergency evacuation & egress situations.
Develop plans to rescue & evacuate friends & family if needed.
Use family & friends as possible secondary locations if they are in safer zones.
