Separation strips for cycle paths

Tactile barrier strips for the safe and barrier-free design of cycle paths

Tactile concrete separation strips for cycle paths offer a robust solution for the clear separation of cycle and pedestrian paths and can be used as an alternative to tactile floor markings in this case. They improve traffic safety and orientation, especially for visually impaired and blind people, and comply with applicable standards such as DIN 32984. Their durable material quality makes them ideal for permanent outdoor use.

According to DIN 32984, "[Tactile] ground indicators must not be installed on roadways, cycle paths, or railway tracks themselves for the safety of blind and visually impaired people. They must also not be used instead of the curb edge to solely separate sidewalks from the roadway (the only exception being narrow no-passage zones before level crossings at separate crossings)." This applies not only to the safety of blind people but also to the safety of cyclists, inline skaters, and wheelchair users. Tactile ground guidance systems can lead to falls and accidents . This must be taken into account during planning. Risk areas include, for example, stairs/steps or longitudinal grooves, which can be dangerous for cyclists, inline skaters, roller skaters, or wheelchair users. Pedestrians can also trip over tactile studs or ribs. A tactile guidance system should be safe for everyone; that is, the "design for all" planning and design principle applies.

According to the German Road and Transportation Research Association (FGSV): “Classic tactile paving indicators such as ribbed or studded structures may only be used where it is safe to walk on them. Their use in the area of roads or cycle paths is prohibited.”

The panels can be adjusted to different heights to meet individual requirements, making them a flexible choice for accessible infrastructure projects. Perfectly suited for sustainable cycle path construction!

Tactile cycle path slabs made of concrete

Tactile concrete cycle path slabs set new standards in accessible transport planning. They serve as separating strips between cycle paths and footpaths , ensure clear orientation and increase safety on transport routes.

The tactile surface offers optimal feel and signals changes of direction, transitions, or hazards. Made of robust concrete, these slabs are weather-resistant and durable. They can be easily integrated into existing infrastructure and are available in various sizes and colors. Perfect for sustainable mobility concepts in urban and rural areas!

The cycle path slabs serve as ground indicators for demarcating level traffic areas in public traffic areas according to the recommendation of the DBSV, in accordance with DIN TS 15 209, DIN 32 984 and Ril 813.02.

The upper surface has usable areas with an asymmetrical height profile, while the sidewalk side has a ribbed structure.

Material: Fiber-reinforced concrete C45/55 XF4 (abrasion class 4, tested according to DIN 52108) on core concrete C30/37 XF2, frost and de-icing salt resistant

Lay the top edge of the slab flush with the adjacent floor covering, with joints > 3 mm, in a professional manner.
Length x Width: 745 x 300 mm
Height: 80 - 105 mm
Available colors: White, Yellow, Anthracite or Concrete Grey

Accessible, rollable concrete curb ramps

Whether used as visual markers on sidewalks and bike paths or as step-free ramps in public spaces, these elements optimize orientation and comfort for all users. Through innovative designs that combine durability and ease of maintenance, dividing strips and ramps contribute significantly to sustainable and safe traffic design.

The rollable curb or zero-level curb offers an innovative, barrier-free solution for step-free transitions between traffic areas. With a curb height of just 3 cm, it allows for effortless rollover, providing maximum comfort, especially for wheelchair users, walker users, and other people with reduced mobility. Lowering the crossing area to road level creates a seamless transition that is supported both visually and tactilely. An integrated barrier with a ribbed structure provides additional safety in the zero-level area, ensuring optimal guidance for blind and visually impaired people. This concept is complemented by matching transition stones that guarantee a harmonious connection to adjacent areas, thus contributing to a safe and inclusive traffic space.
