Portable Taxiway lighting

Airport taxiway lighting designates a route an aircraft uses after exiting a runway. A taxiway leads to facilities like hangars, aprons or terminals. Its surface is usually made of concrete or tarmac, but some minor airport can have a grassy or gravel taxiway.

Taxiway and runway

Busy airports that require a rapid exit from a runway are equipped with the so-called rapid-exit taxiway or high-speed taxiway. They are predominantly created by prolonging a runway, which gives more breaking space. The speed a plane can go with on a taxiway is from 37 to 56 km/h. Runway lights and taxiway lights differ in terms of color so that a pilot could easily tell them apart and identify what way they are on.

Taxiway Lights

Taxiway lighting consists of edge lights, centerline lights, clearance bar lights, runway guard lights, and stop bar lights. The Taxiway Light colors differ with regard to the place they illuminate and what information they convey to an airplane pilot.

Taxiway edge lights

Edge lighting is a basic element of taxiway lighting. These are blue lights which are place all along the taxiway edges at up to 60-meter intervals.

Taxiway centerline lights

Taxiway centerline is marked by green lights. They are installed at 30-meter intervals, a few centimeters away from the centerline’s center, on the right or left-hand side.

Other taxiway lights

Apart from the basic taxiway lights, such as edge lights or centerline lights, there are also other lights that constitute an additional help for an aircraft pilot. For instance, these are clearance bar lights. They consist of three yellow lights. Moreover, there are also runway guard lights which are installed on both sides of a taxiway; they give out a flashing, yellow light. At an airport taxiway, there are also stop bar lights. These are low-intensity, red lights set out in a line; they give out an omnidirectional light. They are installed at stop points, along a taxiway, on both sides.

Taxiway lamps – how are they installed?

Operating a massive machine on land is sometimes much more of a challenge for a pilot than in the air. That’s why taxiway lamps are installed flat with the surface so as to avoid any potential collision threats.
