Guidance Path Surface (400mm x 400mm)

The purpose of the guidance path surface tactile is used to guide visually impaired people along a route when the traditional cues, such as a property line or kerb edge are not available.

It can also be used to guide people around obstacles, for example, street furniture in a pedestrianised area.

The surface has been designed so that people can be guided along the route either by walking on the tactile surface or by maintaining contact with a long cane.

Suitable Applications

  • Where the traditional guidance given by a standard foot-way between the property line and carriageway does not exist

  • Where pedestrians need to be guided around obstacles

  • Where a number of visually impaired people need to find a specific location.

  • In transport terminals to guide people between facilities.

Benefits of Surface Mounted Tactile Paving

Surface Mounted Tactile Paving proves a time and cost-effective alternative compared to traditional concrete slabs. 

We supply an industrial-strength adhesive for installing the tactile to the intended surface.

This helps ensure a quick and easy installation process, which does not require heavy lifting or excavation works.

  • Hardwearing & Durable Properties - Proven to be 5x more hard-wearing than concrete. 

  • Wear Resistant Characteristics - Extensively tested and offers a 10 year design life, without any risk of tile cracking.

  • Lightweight & Flexible Design - Designed for ease of transport and they are simple to cut on-site to suit your intended area.
