Updated Final Hurricane Evacuation Zones and the New Online Zone Finder

The expanded evacuation zones 1 through 6 replace Zones A, B and C and take into account larger, slower moving storms that come in at high tide like Hurricane Sandy. The new map also adds 26 Housing Authority developments, four hospitals and nine nursing homes to evacuation zones.

The online Hurricane Evacuation Zone Finder supports mobile GPS and can easily be used on mobile phones to find out if an evacuation is in effect and for which zone(s).
