Braille and tactiles
The UK Railways play a vital role in connecting people and communities, and it is essential to ensure that all passengers, including those with visual impairments, have equal access to these services.
Services
We want to provide an excellent experience for train passengers, which is why we offer a range of services from installation to completion. We’re not just experts at wayfinding; we can also design and implement poster cases, conduct site surveys and create digital prints and graphics, among other things. We’ve worked with big clients from all across the UK, from Transport for London to Network Rail.
We’re also passionate about and have experience with Access for All projects, a government initiative funding station accessibility for less able passengers.
