A corduroy surface is the recommended solution to warn visually impaired people to the presence of specific hazards.

The purpose of the corduroy tactile paving is to warn visually impaired people of the presence of specific hazards; steps, level crossings or the approach to on-street light rapid transport (LTR) platforms. It is also used where a footway joins a shared route. It conveys the message ‘hazard, proceed with caution’.
