6.53 Taxiway minimum separation distances

       (1) The separation distance between the centreline of a taxiway (including an apron taxiway, a rapid exit taxiway, and a taxilane) and 1 of the following:

(a) the centreline of a parallel runway;

(b) the centreline of a parallel taxiway;

(c) the centreline of a parallel taxilane;

(d) a building, structure, vehicle, wall, plant, equipment, parked aeroplane or road;

        must not be less than the distance determined using Tables 6.53 (1)-1 and 6.53 (1)-2.

       (2) For Table 6.53 (1)-1, where the row for a nominated code number for a runway (the runway)  intersects with the column for a nominated code letter for the taxiway, the distance mentioned in the intersecting cell is the minimum separation distance required for the centreline of an associated taxiway to be from the centreline of the runway.

       (3) The separation distance of the following (the relevant minimum separation distance):

(a) from the centreline of a taxiway (other than a taxilane) to the centreline of another taxiway (including a taxilane);

(b) from the centreline of a taxiway (other than a taxilane) to an object or structure;

(c) from the centreline of a taxilane to the centreline of another taxilane;

(d) from the centreline of a taxilane to an object, structure, parked aeroplane or road;

        must not be less than the distance determined using Table 6.53 (1)-2.

       (4) For Rows 1 and 2 in Table 6.53 (1)-2, the relevant minimum separation distance for a taxiway with a code letter mentioned in a column of the Row is the distance in metres mentioned in the same column of the Row.

       (5) For Rows 3 and 4 in Table 6.53 (1)-2, the relevant minimum separation distance for a taxilane with a code letter mentioned in a column of the Row is the distance in metres mentioned in the same column of the Row.
