STEP 6: TRANSPORTATION
Part of the pre planning of an evacuation includes how you are going to relocate
people. For any transportation of a large number of people, some considerations
should be;

       •     Are you going to use private vehicles?

       •     Do you require Ambulances?

       •     Is a Community bus available?

       •     What other means of transport are available?

       •     Do you need any other type of special transport?

You should look at the availability, prepare arrangements with providers of transport,
and ensure they are available to assist.

Develop a list of transport providers, contact names and phone numbers and how
many vehicles are required.
