CS ADR-DSN.B.055 Minimum distance between parallel instrument runways

(a)Where parallel instrument runways are intended for simultaneous use, the minimum distance between their centre lines should be:

(1)1 035 m for independent parallel approaches;

(2)915 m for dependent parallel approaches;

(3)760 m for independent parallel departures; and

(4)760 m for segregated parallel operations.

(b)Apart from provided in (a) above, for segregated parallel operations the specified minimum distance:

(1)may be decreased by 30 m for each 150 m that the arrival runway is staggered toward the arriving aircraft, to a minimum of 300 m; and

(2)should be increased by 30 m for each 150 m that the arrival runway is staggered away from the arriving aircraft.

(c)Other combinations of minimum distances should apply taking into account ATM and operational aspects.
