Alerts/Notifications

When emergency/critical events happen, the SRD issues alerts to notify those in affected areas so the appropriate steps can be taken to protect themselves and their loved ones.

The SRD offers a free emergency notification service to keep residents, visitors and businesses informed of emergencies in a timely manner by both, text message and voice calls to landlines and cell phones to people who subscribe to receive them.

DOWNLOAD ALERTABLE APP – Alerts can also be sent via the Alertable mobile app with an “Override Silent Mode” feature for critical alerts.  The Alertable app is free and can be downloaded from your mobile phone, tablet, computer, or smart speaker. Downloading the app is not mandatory, even without the app you will still receive phone calls and text messages. Alertable covers every community in the SRD.

CALL CONTROL – When signing up, anyone with call control will not receive the access code to sign up for phone alerts.  You must temporarily turn off call control to receive the Alertable access code.

When you turn call control back on, future alert messages will potentially be blocked by call control. In order to ensure that all alerts are delivered, someone using call control should add the Alertable phone number (855-756-1140) to their “Authorized List”.

If you know someone who wishes to receive notifications but does not have internet access, please sign-up for them or have them call the Strathcona Emergency Program at 250-830-6702.
