Evacuation

Prepare using the municipal plan; flood precautions apply specifically to flooding.

1. 1

   Read the municipal plan

   Learn the flood-prone areas, escape routes and safe areas identified by your municipality.

2. 2

   Plan a temporary refuge

   Choose a temporary refuge with your household, considering that roads and bridges may not be passable.

3. 3

   During flooding: avoid dangerous routes

   Avoid flooded roads, underpasses, embankments and bridges. Evaluate a route before travelling and avoid flood-prone areas.

4. 4

   Follow current official instructions

   Follow authority instructions as the situation develops. A previously saved route is not proof that a road is safe now.

5. 5

   Beforehand: keep a paper copy

   App editorial suggestion: keep printed local maps and addresses with your plan; save agreed meeting addresses in Family. The app does not provide offline maps.
