Cycleway Tactile
Verified by manufacturer 2 months ago
To alert pedestrians, including the visually impaired, to the proximity of a cycleway.
Application
It provides a visual and physical indication on the position of the central limit to cyclists and a visual and detectable underfoot warning to pedestrians.
Description
Demarcation paving is used to alert pedestrians, including those who are blind or partially sighted, about the proximity of a cycleway within a shared cycleway/ footpath route.
Features and benefits
- The units provide a visual and physical indication to cyclists on the position of the central limit.
- Provides a visual and easily detectable underfoot warning to all pedestrians.
