This article discusses methods for reducing risk through training and exercises aimed at planned evacuation. It emphasizes the importance of integrating planning, exercises, and evaluation methods to enhance community preparedness. The study highlights the role of transport system models (TSMs) in simulating evacuation scenarios and reducing theoretical risk. The research proposes a framework for training and exercises based on a transportation planning model, which supports ex ante evaluations of exposure reduction from an evacuation plan. The results show that the effectiveness of planned actions increases with the implementation of different levels of exercises. The paper also discusses the importance of exercises in testing the effectiveness of evacuation plans and reducing exposure risk. The study provides empirical evidence from real exercises, demonstrating the framework's effectiveness. The research contributes to the growing knowledge about risk and potential actions for reducing it, offering insights for researchers, decision-makers, and society. The article concludes with future perspectives on improving the accuracy of TSMs, enhancing the ability to conduct and observe exercises, and estimating risk reduction through models and exercises.This article discusses methods for reducing risk through training and exercises aimed at planned evacuation.
