Summary

Description

Throughout town, there are textured areas on the sidewalks and other places. Took me a while to realize why: Assist the blind in navigation. Dots mean a change (stairs, ramp, turn), lines mean a straight path, and longer dots mean a curve. Simple, clean help.

The only odd bit... These occur in restrooms as well, but not in the same relative place. One sink will have two textured pads to assist in placement, but the sink could be any of the sinks.
