Access Design – Transit Blue
The intent of the blue strip at the base of the poles is to provide a contrast and avoid a grey-on-grey appearance. The paint should be specified to provide some added protection against corrosion at the pole base. Alternately using a dark or otherwise contrasting walking surface you would not need to paint a strip at the base of the poles. p p p Should be included in the design guidelines. Suggest wording “interfaces between structures and the platform surface should be finished in contrasting colors, discernable to the visually impaired. 7 Ave the pedestrian zone is set by the back of the benches and the back of the shelters are then set at this line. The canopy strut member is also set at this line. Transit dark blue is universally known as “National Blue”. Paint color is RAL 5003 (Transit Blue) specified for the blue receptacles.
