Australian standards:

Guidelines for speed humps are set down by Australian standard AS1428.4, and sets the benchmark for our industry. 

In essence it states that for a building required to be accessible, tactile indicators must be used as a warning for people that are vision impaired.  If the area is used by the public these tactile indicators must be used to warn people that they are approaching a stairway, escalator, travelator or a ramp other than a step ramp and kerb ramp.  This standard also caters for where there is an absence of suitable barriers, stating that tactile ground surface indicators are required in certain instances.
