When a disaster strikes, will you be ready?
TBRPC’s All-Hazards Disaster Planning Guide provides preparedness information for hazards including hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, hazardous materials, and terrorism. The guide includes hurricane evacuation maps for participating coastal counties in the Tampa Bay area.
When necessary, each county’s Emergency Management office will recommend a hurricane evacuation by Level (A, B, C, D or E) as shown on these color-coded maps. The maps show the location of hurricane evacuation routes and hurricane shelters/evacuation centers.
Printed copies of the All-Hazards Disaster Planning Guides are available throughout the region in participating counties. For a list of pick-up locations, or if you need assistance in locating your zone, evacuation route, or evacuation shelter, please contact your county’s Emergency Management office.
