Overlapping ERA 25

4.3.4 Apron Boundary Line Represented by a continuous red line, the Apron Boundary Line indicates the boundary between the aircraft stand and the secondary roadway.

4.3.5 Equipment Restraint Area (ERA)

The ERA of an aircraft stand demarcates the area to be kept clear for the safe movement of an aircraft in and out of the aircraft stand. Drivers are not allowed to park or position any vehicle or ground servicing equipment within the ERA at all times, unless they are servicing an aircraft after its arrival or prior to departure. 4.3.6 Equipment Staging Area (ESA) The ESA of an aircraft stand is demarcated by a continuous white line outlining the area where ground handling equipment or vehicles for the servicing of an aircraft be positioned at least 20 minutes before the arrival of the aircraft. All vehicles must be lined up in an orderly manner at all times

26

4.3.7 Equipment Parking Area (EPA) The EPA is demarcated by a continuous white line and is reserved (via lease) for parking of vehicle (which includes ground handling equipment).

4.3.8 No Parking Area This area shall be kept clear at all times as it provides the manoeuvring space for tow-tug driver to position and connect the tow-tug to the aircraft nose wheel when preparing for aircraft pushback.

NO PARKING

4.3.9 Holding Strip The holding strip is located between the primary roadway and the aircraft stand. Driver is only allowed to park on the holding strip of the aircraft stand if he is involved in the ground handling operations for the flight assigned to that aircraft stand. Driver is allowed to park on the holding strip no more than 20 minutes before the arrival of the aircraft.

27

Driver shall ensure vehicle is properly parked to prevent obstruction to operations and vehicular movement. Driver shall switch off the engine and remove the key from the ignition when the vehicle is parked. Driver shall remove vehicle once the ground handling operations are completed or when aircraft has departed. 4.3.10 Passenger Loading Bridge (PLB) Safety Zone The red hatched area demarcates the PLB Safety Zone. The area shall be kept clear of any movement at all times for the safe operations of the PLB. Only vehicles and equipment authorised by CAG may be positioned in this Safety Zone after PLB has docked to aircraft and must be removed prior to operating the PLB. Driver operating in the aircraft stand should alert the PLB operator if he spots any obstruction in the PLB Safety Zone before PLB operations begin. Notwithstanding the above, the PLB operator should not dock or retract the PLB when a vehicle or equipment is parked between the parked aircraft and PLB (refer to area marked in blue below), even though the area is outside the PLB Safety Zone.

In addition, the PLB operator shall deploy a marshaller to assist him when retracting the PLB. The marshaller will assist the PLB operator by ensuring that the path of the PLB is clear of obstruction. Driver operating in the aircraft stand should remind the PLB operator if he spots that this is not complied with. 4.3.11 Pedestrian Crossing Driver shall look out for pedestrian crossing signs and slow down when approaching the crossing. Driver shall stop at the crossing and give way to pedestrian.
