The play and evacuation slide at the “Freche Daxe” children’s centre in Braunschweig / Lower Saxony was built in combination with an escape staircase. In the event of an evacuation, the children can therefore also be evacuated via the tunnel emergency slide, which, unlike the stairs, is quicker and involves less risk of accidents. In addition, the children can use the spiral tubular escape slide every day while playing in the garden and thus practice unconsciously, which minimises the risk of panic in an emergency.
