The airport apron area is a busy place! Multiple aircraft arriving, departing and parking, airport luggage vehicles, refueling trucks, maintenance vehicles, motorized staircases and other equipment
are constantly on the move. We provide heavy duty apron equipment that helps airports manage the continuous flow of vehicles and aircraft in the apron area. Our high quality apron equipment is built to withstand the harsh daily elements of wind, sun, snow and rain.
APRON AREA TRAFFIC CONE REGULATIONS
The regulations regarding the use of traffic cones in the apron area of airports may vary depending on the specific airport and its governing authority. However, in general, the use of traffic cones in the apron area of airports is typically regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the United States.
According to the FAA’s Airport Design standards, traffic cones used in the apron area of airports should be:
- Made of a durable, high-visibility material that is easily seen in low light conditions.
- Designed to be stable in windy conditions and not easily knocked over.
- Placed in a manner that does not obstruct aircraft movement or access to emergency equipment.
- Removed promptly once their intended purpose has been served.
In addition, anyone operating a vehicle or equipment in the apron area of an airport must be familiar with the airport’s traffic control plan and follow all instructions given by air traffic control personnel or airport authorities. This may include the proper use of traffic cones and other traffic control devices.
It’s worth noting that regulations and guidelines may vary depending on the specific airport and its governing authority, so it’s important to consult the appropriate regulations and guidelines for the airport in question.
