Flooding update
â ď¸NSW SES is advising residents and businesses within Low lying parts of Woronora and Bonnet Bay to prepare to evacuate the following area in the next few hours:
Properties in the following:
⢠Thorpe Road
⢠Prince Edward Park Rd

Why we are advising people to prepare to evacuate: Floodwaters may isolate the area. If you remain in the area, you may be trapped without power, water and other essential services and it may be too dangerous to rescue you.
Where to go if evacuation is required: Prepare to stay with family, friends or at accommodation outside of the flood area. If you are unable to do so, an evacuation centre location will be advertised.
Simple things you can do now:
⢠Take pets, essential items, warm clothes, medicines, insurance documents and valuables with you.
â˘Relocate other personal possessions to a safer/higher place.
â˘When directed to evacuate, leave as early as possible to avoid congested roads.
â˘Prepare to take drinking water and food due to possible long travel times.
â˘Share this information with family, friends and neighbours and help others where possible.
