DfT Guidance on areas of use: the lozenge tactile surface is recommended for use at all on-street LRT platform edges. It should not be used at off-street platforms where the flat topped dome platform edge (off-street), otherwise known as offset blister, warning surface should be used.

The surface is not recommended for use at raised bus stops.
