Tactile paving

Tactile paving is like a special kind of sidewalk that helps people who have a hard time seeing or walking. The sidewalk has bumpy patterns on it that people can feel with their hands or feet. This way, they know if they are near the edge of the sidewalk or if they are heading the right way.

The patterns are also different colors, like yellow or red, which can help people with vision problems know which way to go. For example, yellow might mean caution or slow down, and red might mean danger or stop.

Some tactile paving even has special shapes that can tell people about certain things, like a stop sign or a train station. This way, people who can’t see or read the signs can still know where they are and where they need to go.

Tactile paving is a really important thing to have in cities and other public areas, because it helps make sure that everyone can get around easily and safely.
