Development of regional emergency management bases

Hyogo has been stockpiling relief goods by developing regional emergency management bases equipped with the function of stockpiling and collection/delivery of relief goods. These bases also include functions for gathering and providing lodging for relief workers.

  • Miki Earthquake Disaster Memorial Park was opened as a regional emergency management base for the entire prefecture and 5 other regional emergency management bases were installed.
  • Hyogo developed a base near junction point. A heliport is fully-equipped to secure air access.
  • Miki Earthquake Disaster Memorial Park is ordinarily used for fire academy and sports facility. In the event of a major disaster, it will be used as a hub facility of the regional emergency management base.
