8.54 Vehicle service road markings

       (1) Service roads:

(a) may be provided on aprons; and

(b) if provided, must be marked with vehicle service road markings to keep vehicles clear of aircraft on taxiways and taxilanes.

       (2) An apron service road marking must consist of a continuous white line that is 0.1 m wide, as shown in Figure 8.54 (2).

Note   Road markings can also be provided to facilitate efficient and safe movements outside the manoeuvring area.

       (3) Each lane of an apron service road must be of a minimum width to accommodate the widest vehicle that uses the road.

     Figure 8.54 (2)   Apron service road (shows matters)

       (4) If an apron service road is located adjacent to where there are taxiing aircraft, the side of the apron service road bordering the taxiing aircraft must be shown with a vehicle limit line marking consisting of a continuous double white line, with each line being 0.1 m wide and separated from the other line by 0.1 m, as shown in Figure 8.54 (4)‑1.
Note 1   This continuous double white line is to be marked in conjunction with an apron limit line marking. The combination of a double white line and an apron limit line indicates to a vehicle DO NOT CROSS the line on to the adjoining taxiway without clearance or authorisation. A double white line without an apron limit line is for use where an apron service road is located beside a taxilane.
