Household Emergency Plan

There are many types of disasters that could damage roads and disrupt your ability to travel. Get your family or household together and agree on a plan. In your plan, you will need to work out:

• Where to shelter in an earthquake, flood or storm
• How and where you will meet up during and after a disaster
• The best place to store Emergency Survival Items. Make sure everyone knows where these items are, and who is responsible for checking essential items.
• Where each person's Getaway Kit will be so they can take it with them
• How to turn off the water, gas and electricity in your home or business
• How to contact your local civil defence organisation for assistance during an emergency
