Vectorial\u00ae system\u2019s main module surface texture can be adapted to create a contrast with the conventional flooring, thus complying with the requirements of accessibility regulations in each location.<\/p>\n<p>The available tactile textures are the warning and directional ones. These surfaces are embedded in the main modules during the production process. This method offers a great result, with no tripping hazards because there is no height difference between the standard and the tactile surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about the accessibility features of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zicla.com\/en\/vectorial-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vectorial\u00ae system<\/a> platforms, contact us at <a href=\"mailto:info@zicla.com\">info@zicla.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NYDOT has installed a Vectorial\u00ae system platform at one of its Select Bus Service (SBS) route stops.
