There are plans in place to evacuate any part of the city if there is a major incident.
To help the emergency services deal with an incident in the city centre, the area has been divided up into zones.
If a large scale evacuation is needed, the Police will coordinate this and will alert people through
- local media
- roadside message boards
- radio systems in shops, restaurants, pubs and clubs
- public address systems in shopping centres, bus and railway stations.
You would also find up to date information through our Twitter and Police Scotland Twitter.
