Tactile flooring, sometimes referred to as Òfoot BrailleÓ, has been used for many years across the world to alert the visually impaired to the presence of indoor and outdoor hazards such as staircases, ramps, platform edges and pedestrian crossings. Specific hazards are denoted by different surface configurations, profiles, and in some cases, colour. Specifications for the types of tactile Paving to be used have been developed by the Mobility and Inclusion Unit of the Department for Transport and the Joint Mobility Unit of RNIB/GDBA. Detailed guidance on their use can be found in BS 7997:2003
Please note that these product properties are not a replacement for the manufacturer's literature and it is always recommended that Shackerley is consulted before specifying.
