Runway Safety |
|
This is the EUROCONTROL web site for Runway Safety, focused on Runway Incursions Prevention and Runway Excursion Prevention.
ICAO
The ICAO secretariat has lent its strong support to this work and urges all states to fully implement
the ICAO provisions relevant to runway safety.
The ICAO definition of a runway incursion is:
"Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft,vehicle or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and take off of aircraft".
Effective November 2004 |

The European Action Plan for the Prevention of Runway Incursions |
The European Action Plan for the Prevention of Runway Incursions is the result of the combined efforts of organisations representing all areas of aerodrome operations. The recommendations, when implemented, will enhance runway safety by the consistent and harmonised application of existing ICAO provisions, and through suggesting improvement opportunities.
Work continues to develop strategies to better support operational staff on the manoeuvering area. As part of that stakeholder commitment to enhancing the safety of runway operations, a study has been undertaken to explore the introduction of a rumble feature on taxiways leading to the runway

Local Runway Safety Teams |
More than 100 Local Runway Safety Teams have been established at airports across the ECAC area with the firm support of the Eurocontrol Safety Regulation Commission.
As a consequence of the work of the Local Runway Safety Teams, runway incursions have been effectively mitigated, and in some cases eliminated from hot spots at airports.
