What is the speed limit on aprons and service roads?

The speed limit on aprons and service roads is established as 30 km/h to enhance safety and operational efficiency at airports. This speed limit takes into account the unique environment of the airside, where there are a variety of vehicles, aircraft, and personnel in close proximity. Keeping the speed limit at 30 km/h helps reduce the risk of accidents and allows drivers to respond quickly to any potential hazards or sudden changes in the environment.

In contrast, higher speeds could lead to severe consequences in the case of incidents involving other vehicles or personnel, while lower speeds might impede efficient operations, especially in busy areas where maneuverability is crucial. The 30 km/h limit strikes a balance between safety and operational effectiveness, making it an essential guideline for all operators in the airside zones.
