Bushfire Safer Places & Last Resort Refuges
If you live, work or travel in an area where bushfires can occur you need to make a plan that includes places you can relocate to if you are threatened by a bushfire.
There are two categories of places that can be used to shelter from a bushfire that the CFS have identified. The preferred category called Bushfire Safer Places offers the greater level of protection.
The second category called Bushfire Last Resort Refuges offers little protection but may provide a central gathering point if all other options aren't available. Click on the link to the CFS website below to see the locations by Council area.
