The Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition is working with related organizations to implement safety measures around Yumeshima and within the venue, in order to create an Expo that can be visited safely.
There are three clinics and five first aid stations on site. Ambulances are also available.
Fire department, police, and coastguard personnel on-site
The Osaka Municipal Fire Department, Osaka Prefectural Police, and the Japan Coast Guard will be stationed in and around the venue and will work together at all times to prepare for accidents, disasters, and other emergencies.
Comprehensive medical system
Clinics have been set up to respond to sudden illness or heatstroke. Doctors, nurses, and medical teams will be available at all times. In the event of an emergency, patients will be transported by ambulance to an off-site medical facility as quickly as possible. In addition, more than 150 AEDs have been placed throughout the venue.
Promotion of hygiene measures
The Sanitation Division of the Osaka City Public Health Center will be stationed at the venue, and will conduct on-site inspections to prevent the occurrence of environmental or food safety hazards. We will also collect information on infectious diseases at the venue and in the Osaka area, and work to implement infection control measures at the venue.
Thorough security measures
Up to 2,000 security personnel will be deployed to inspect bags at the entrance gates and provide other security on site. In addition, the placement of approximately 600 security cameras will ensure that any incidents or accidents are immediately reported to police officers on site.
Building collapse prevention and preparing the venue to withstand tsunamis
The venue is raised more than 5m above the estimated water level of a tsunami caused by a major earthquake in the Nankai Trough.
The buildings on the Expo site and the bridges and tunnels leading to Yumeshima are earthquake-resistant, so there is little chance of them collapsing.
Three-day stockpile of supplies
Temporary accommodation is available both inside and outside the venue. In addition to a three-day supply of food and water, we have stockpiled the same amount of supplies as an evacuation shelter.
Return-home assistance in cooperation with relevant organizations
We will strengthen communication with Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City and provide the necessary information for people to return home. In addition, alternative transport by helicopter or ship will be requested as necessary to transport the injured, sick, or persons requiring special care.
