ERU Evacuation Route Use

Definition

The feature is a portion of a route designated for use during emergency evacuation either during a structure fire or in advance of an approaching wildland fire.

Description

In the case of structural fires such routes use stairwells for descent to ground level and typically terminate at a well-known location where efforts can be made to determine whether all potential occupants have safely exited the structure. Routes used to escape approaching wildland fires will vary based on topography, weather and fire-front conditions; in general they lead away from forested areas.
