there are no tactiles in the pavement, adjacent to these crossings. how is a visually impared person supposed to know where the pavement ends and the crossing begins? there are also no tactiles in the pedestrian crossing in front of coles. where is the "safety first" consideration for the visually impared?
Thanks for pointing that out. It could be that they are still coming, but I'll check.
