Short Radius Exits
Short radius exit lights consist of a line of green taxiway centerline lights. The line of
lights begins at a point that is not more than 1 meter (3 feet) off the runway centerline
on the near side and is the PT of the exit curve. The radius of the curve should be the
largest that will provide a minimum clearance to the pavement edge equal to one half
the width of the taxiway. The line of lights runs along the arc to the PT with the taxiway
centerline. It then follows the taxiway centerline for a minimum of 60 meters (200 feet).
The spacing between the lights is not greater than 7.5 meters (25 feet). (See Figure
5-7.)
