A tactile directional indicator system positioned along interior walls and interior doors of a structure so as to define a path of travel for directionalized escape from the structure when an individual's vision is impaired due to adverse conditions within the structure. The tactile directional indicator system includes tactile directional indicator members substantially linearly disposed along interior walls and doors of the structure. The tactile directional indicator members are connected to the interior walls of the structure in such a manner so that the tactile directional indicator members are substantially parallel to the floor of the structure and positioned a distance from the floor so as to permit individuals to slidingly move their hands on the tactile directional indicator members when the individuals are either in a standing position or a crawling position. The tactile directional indicator members are provided with a tactile surface formed of patterned graduated indentations and protuberances so as to provide a relatively smooth tactile surface in a direction towards an exit of the structure and a relatively rough tactile surface in an opposite direction away from an exit of the structure.
