"The purpose of the Blister Surface is to provide a warning system to visually impaired people who would otherwise, in absence of a kerb upstand less than 25mm high, find it difficult to differentiate between where the footway ends and the carriageway begins. The surface is therefore an essential safety feature for this group of road users at pedestrian crossing points, where the footway is flush with the carriageway to enable wheelchair users to cross unimpeded."

The cycle cord surface is used on shared cycle ways and footpaths. The surface is used wherever the shared route begins/ends or crosses a carriageway. The tile 'ribs' are used by the visually impaired to identify the correct side of the route to enter, avoiding collisions with cyclists. The warning surface also conveys that shared route is ending or crossing a carriageway.
