Tactile paving, also known as tactile ground surface indicators (TGSIs), is a type of textured surface that is designed to assist individuals with visual impairments or disabilities in navigating their surroundings safely. It consists of raised patterns or truncated domes that can be felt underfoot or with a mobility aid, such as a cane.
Tactile paving serves as a warning or directional tool, alerting visually impaired individuals to changes in their path or potential hazards. The patterns and textures are strategically placed at key locations, such as pedestrian crossings, train platforms, stairs, ramps, and hazardous areas, to provide sensory cues and aid navigation.
The patterns used on tactile paving vary depending on their intended purpose. For example, blister patterns indicate the presence of a pedestrian crossing, while corduroy patterns signify a hazardous area or a change in elevation. These distinct patterns help individuals identify the type of environment they are entering and adjust their movements accordingly.
By incorporating tactile paving into urban infrastructure, cities and public spaces become more accessible and inclusive for people with visual impairments. It enhances their independence and mobility, allowing them to navigate the environment more confidently and safely.
