An exit corridor and/or stairway is a pedestrian pathway that allows direct access to the outside of a building and/or allows access to a building entrance and subsequent pathways to the outside of a building (e.g. an exit corridor is the quickest, easiest and most director pathway for leaving a building). Since exit corridors or passageways are the primary means for egress during an emergency, residents shall follow the safety guidelines outlined below:
- Keep all means of egress clean, clutter-free and unobstructed
- Do not place hazardous materials or equipment in areas that are used for evacuation
