CS ADR-DSN.B.165 Objects on runway strips

(a)An object situated on a runway strip which may endanger aeroplanes should be regarded as an obstacle and should, as far as practicable, be removed.

(b)No fixed object, other than visual aids required for air navigation or those required for aircraft safety purposes and which must be sited on the runway strip, and satisfying the relevant frangibility requirement in Chapter T, should be permitted on a runway strip:

(1)within 77.5 m of the runway centre line of a precision approach runway Category I, II or III where the code number is 4 and the code letter is F; or

(2)within 60 m of the runway centre line of a precision approach runway Category I, II or III where the code number is 3 or 4; or

(3)within 45 m of the runway centre line of a precision approach runway Category I where the code number is 1 or 2.

(c)To eliminate a buried vertical surface on objects situated on a graded portion of the runway strip, a slope should be provided to minimise hazards to aeroplanes running off the runway.
