Sign up for emergency alerts from Metro Vancouver
Sign up for free emergency alerts from Metro Vancouver through Alertable. Alertable is a mass public alert system to help you and your family stay informed and safe during an emergency or public safety event at all Metro Vancouver facilities and critical infrastructure, Cleveland Dam, Seymour Falls Dam or in Electoral Area A.
The Alertable app is free for the public. It is available to download for iOS and Android smart phones, tablets, and smart speakers (Amazon Alexa/Google Home). No smart phone? Subscribe for free email, SMS alerts, or phone calls. Users can personalize their alerts based on location, incident type, and severity.
Alertable notifications share critical information that let you know:
- What the emergency is
- Where the emergency is occurring
- How to stay safe
- When the event is over or new information is available
Alertable has replaced Metro Vancouver's previous web-based voice, text, and email message system. At this time, the alerts and instructions from Metro Vancouver are only offered in English.
