If all of Westport had to evacuate in a flood, would you know what to do and where to go?Flood protection walls are being designed and built in Westport to reduce flood risk. However, risk can’t be fully eliminated, and evacuation may still be required in a major event.
This free community evening will help you understand:
• How evacuation decisions are made
• The science and modelling behind how flooding is predicted
• What to expect during an emergency
• What you need to do to prepare
• Where to go and how the process works
We’ll walk you through how emergency management works, what’s in the Westport Flood Evacuation Plan, answer common questions, and give you a chance to meet representatives from local emergency services.
We’ll also have our community mobile emergency kitchen running with sausage sizzles, plus a few spot prizes.
