About evacuation sites, which is opened in the event of a typhoon or heavy rain

　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, the Kanazawa Ward Office will 　immediately issue the evacuation warning and open five evacuation sites locations to help those living in the target area evacuate.
　If you live in the target area, you will be notified by posting around June every year.

・Daido Elementary School (2-3-1, Daido)

・Kamariyahigashi Elementary School (2-12-1, Kamariya Higashi)

・Nishishiba Junior High School (Nishishiba 1-chome 23-1)

・Ben Net Hall, Kanto Gakuin University (4th floor of Science and Culture Center) (1-50-1, Rokuura-Higashi)

　※From September 30, 2023, it was changed from Kanto Gakuin University Building No. 12.

　　For details on the location, please refer to the campus map of Kanto Gakuin University (outside site).

・Rokuura District Center (Rokuura 5-chome 20-2)

Only when special heavy rain warning is expected to announce, the ward office will set up additional facilities in addition to the above five evacuation sites locations.

Following the damage of Typhoon No. 19 in 2019, the Cabinet Office considered the measures for natural disaster, and the revised Basic Act on Disaster Countermeasures was enacted on May 20, 2021, and the name of the evacuation information was changed.
