What are taxilanes defined by on the parking apron?

Taxilanes on the parking apron are specifically defined by solid yellow lines. These lines serve to guide pilots and vehicle operators, indicating where they are allowed to move and park. The use of solid yellow lines is standardized across airfields to ensure clarity and avoid confusion, contributing to safe movement on the apron where aircraft are parked and serviced.

Ground markings alone might not provide the complete context necessary for operating safely on the apron, while air traffic control movements pertain to the overall management of air traffic, not specifically the delineation of taxilanes. Solid blue lines are typically used for different purposes, such as marking certain types of restricted areas or taxiways, and are not indicative of taxilanes. Thus, the combination of these factors reinforces that solid yellow lines are the defining feature for taxilanes in this context.
