This is the story of Faye.
Faye experiences low vision and sometimes uses a white cane to navigate the built environment in her local area. Faye is a trained user of Tactile Ground Surface Indicators (TGSIs), which supply her with guidance, orientation and mobility.
This video journal post is about how Faye using TGSIs to move from the perimeter of a building, across a busy road to where she continues her journey on the side. This is an example of safe and independent mobility provided through the correct use of mobility products (TGSIs) and their application, allowing for barrier-free access along the path and a direction of travel in a built environment.
