A system for providing information to pedestrians comprises protrusions 2; an active wireless transmitter 4 arranged in fixed relation to the protrusions and adapted to transmit an information signal; and a wireless receiver (e.g. mobile phone 7) for receiving the information signal and generating an alert (e.g. speech, sound, image or video) in response thereto. The transmitter may be arranged between the protrusions on a substrate 3 which is a portion of a pavement (e.g. at a pedestrian crossing or railway platform). The protrusions may be connected by arms (6,Fig.2) and covered by a resin layer 5. Alternatively the transmitter may be on a post 8 near the protrusions. The transmitter may allow the information signal to be changed – or its state queried – remotely. The alert may be related to the strength or content of the information signal. The signal may be transmitted via a short-range wireless protocol (e.g. Bluetooth, Zigbee or Z-wave). The system may be useful to blind pedestrians.
