The work is carried out at night, when there are no passengers at the station. The indicators are applied using the cold plastic method - it is fast, convenient and does not damage the granite surface.

“Unlike tactile tiles, cold plastic is more economical, although it performs the same function - helping people with visual impairments navigate and move safely in a certain space,” the Kyiv City State Administration said.

Several stages of consultation and testing were carried out before the work began: after the indicators were applied, they were tested by visually impaired passengers. The system was refined and improved thanks to their feedback and completed questionnaires.
