BALTIMORE, MD—Baltimore City is rolling out a new emergency alert system that ensures the timely and adequate communication of critical events, pertinent information, and real-time alerts to all those who work, live, and play in Baltimore City. The Office of Emergency Management had previously utilized a system by the name of Code Red but has now transitioned to a NEW system: Everbridge.
The Mass Notification System, BMORE Alert, which is provided through Everbridge, broadcasts messages to inform registered participants about an emergency.
