East-West Gateway

The largest military drill in St. Louis history involved hundreds of emergency personnel working across the region. Training followed the National Guard’s three-day plan for a major earthquake along the New Madrid Fault line.

Disaster drills Monday through Wednesday will close some downtown streets to make room for military vehicles, helicopters and hundreds of federal responders to simulate a response in the St. Louis region.

The decision comes after a recent regional crime summit for the St. Louis area. The action by the East-West Gateway Council of Governments passed through a voice vote, with no audible dissent.

While the area continues to recover from historic flash floods that damaged hundreds of homes, what can be done to reduce future damage will take years and a possible variety of solutions and funding.
