EVACUATION AREAS
It is considered that the existing buildings on site area suitable as places of safe refuge, as these are
elevated well above existing water features and water courses and are not deemed to be at
immediate risk of inundation. Should evacuation from any building be required, a risk assessment of
the conditions should be undertaken, namely an assessment of the evacuation route. Evacuation
should only occur if flood depths are less than 25cm (or as advised by emergency services).
