What is a Directional Tactile Pad?

Directional Tactile Pads (or indicators) consist of directional bars installed onto walking surfaces to provide directional orientation. It helps blind and vision-impaired pedestrians determine and navigate their next best accessible path of travel.

Directional Tactile Pads are best used in:

• Public transportation access points

• Kerb ramps
• Crossing points and intersections
• Open areas
