evacuation sites (in case of storm and flood damage)

Evacuation means "evacuation" of "difficulty", and going to evacuation sites is not the only evacuation behavior.
Please consider evacuation sites in advance, such as "evacuation at home" when safety is possible at home or keeping safe relatives and friends' homes in place of refuge.

In Yokohama City, we have identified cliffs that could cause significant damage to houses in the event of a landslide, and have selected "Immediate evacuation warning Areas" that will simultaneously issue evacuation warning along with the announcement of the landslide alert information.

If landslide alert information is announced in the southern part of Yokohama, evacuation warning will be issued in the immediate evacuation warning area within Hodogaya Ward, and the Hodogaya Ward Office will open three evacuation sites locations.

If heavy rains could cause flooding in the Katabira River and Imai Rivers, we will open three separate evacuation sitess fromevacuation sites.

※Pets cannot be evacuated at Ikot House evacuation sites.

１. Unlike earthquakes, you can take measures in advance, so let's actively collect disaster prevention and weather information.

２. Evacuation after the rain and wind become stronger or flooded is very dangerous. Let's try to evacuate as soon as possible depending on the situation.

３. If it is already flooded, or if it is dangerous to move to evacuation sites due to strong winds or heavy rain, evacuate to the second floor or higher of a room or building away from the cliff.

４. Depending on the size of the weather condition and typhoon, we may open additional evacuation sites. We will inform you via the disaster information service (disaster prevention information e-mail, Hodogaya Ward disaster information notification system in Yokohama) and our website X (former Twitter) (external site) so that you can obtain the latest information.

１. Please bring a cage, carry bag, etc. to put your pet.
２. Please prepare tools (pet food, etc.) necessary for temporary breeding as necessary.
３. In refuge, people and pets are evacuated in separate places, and pets cannot be brought into the space in refugee.
４. Pets cannot be evacuated at Ikot House evacuation sites.

If you are unable to secure your safety at home and evacuate to evacuation sites or refuge, please note the following:

１. Please bring your own minimum necessary items such as water, food and emergency listings.

２. refugee must fill in the designated refugee list with required items when entering or leaving.

３. Please refrain from evacuation by car. Evacuation by car is dangerous because it can lead to the occurrence of secondary disaster due to traffic congestion such as broken cars and hinder emergency vehicles and those who evacuate on foot. Also, you cannot park your refugee car in each evacuation sites.
