Major problem happens to people with visual impairment in terms of restrictions that make it hard for visual impairment persons to access or navigate. These accessibility restrictions happen in urban transit, where previous research finds there are no sensory markings on the ground to help them find their route with guidance tiles that are poorly constructed for people with visual impairment. Usage of technology provided for the person with visual impairment regarding the location along the train station is still challenging due to inaccuracy and misguidance. The main focus of this research is alternatives to consider to make visually impaired navigation easier. The research aims to identify the alternative route, cues, and architectural elements that the person with visual impairment use in navigating location inside the train station. The focus issue is that the guidance tiles are poorly constructed for people with visual impairment. The study objective is to identify alternative routes and investigate alternative cues and architectural components of the visual impairment used to navigate location inside the train station. Throughout the research, the person with a vision impairment will benefit from the alternatives given to them.
