Designated Emergency evacuation sites

In the past, places to save lives from the dangers of an imminent disaster and places to live an evacuation life are not always clearly distinguished, which contributed to the spread of damage in the Great East Japan Earthquake. For this reason, the Basic Law on Disaster Countermeasures was revised to designate "designated emergency evacuation sites" to escape from the dangers of an imminent disaster and "designated evacuation centers" to live an evacuation life. Check the evacuation sites evacuation route and evacuation shelters in advance and prepare for a disaster.
"Designated Emergency evacuation sites" is a place to escape from the dangers of an imminent disaster and designates each type of disaster (such as floods, landslides, debris flows and landslides, high tides and earthquakes) (also serving as designated evacuation centers). Yokohama City is selected from the evacuation shelter designated as a designated evacuation center.
In addition, disaster type "tsunami" and "large-scale fire" are specified according to the following criteria.

"tsunami," The city is a tsunami evacuation facility ※Designated evacuation shelter among the facilities designated in 1
"Large-scale fire": Motoichi is evacuation area ※evacuation shelter specified in 2
※１About evacuation facilities in tsunami
※２About evacuation area

In order to determine the establishment of the designated emergency evacuation sites based on the scale and circumstances of the disaster, not all evacuation sites will be opened in the event of a disaster.
In addition to the designated emergency evacuation sites, the Neighborhood Association Neighborhood Associations Pavilion may be opened as a evacuation sites. When evacuating, let's confirm evacuation information from the government (city homepage, Yokohama-shi disaster prevention information email, public information vehicle, etc.).
