Los Angeles, CA – An evacuation order has been issued for residents of the Riverwood Community in Big Tujunga due to unsafe and impassable road conditions, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD).
Officials said the order applies to Zone LFD-0117 and was prompted by hazards that made the Arizona Crossing impassable. Residents are being advised to use Conover Fire Road as an alternate route for leaving the area.
According to LAFD, residents should not attempt to cross the waterflow, which remains unsafe. The evacuation order will stay in effect until further notice, and authorities continue to monitor local conditions.
The department urged residents to stay informed using the city’s Genasys Protect map, which provides real-time evacuation zones and safety alerts. Updates are available on their website.
Residents in surrounding areas are encouraged to remain alert in case evacuation zones expand due to changing weather or terrain conditions.
