What do manoeuvring area delimitation markings look like?

Manoeuvring area delimitation markings are specifically designed to provide clear visual guidance for drivers operating within airport areas, particularly in relation to runways and taxiways. The correct markings consist of a single yellow solid line alongside a single yellow dashed line. This combination is used to delineate the boundaries of the manoeuvring area, indicating where vehicles are permitted to operate and where they are not.

The solid line signifies that the boundary is a clear and unyielding marker that should be respected, while the dashed line allows for some flexibility, indicating a transitional area where vehicles can cross or enter a different segment of the airport’s operations. This distinction is crucial for maintaining safety and efficient traffic flow on the airside.

In contrast, the other choices do not accurately reflect the designations used for manoeuvring areas, which could lead to confusion and potential safety hazards on the airside of the airport. The specific color (yellow) and the solid-dashed combination are standardized guidelines used universally for this purpose, ensuring consistency across airports.
