National Runway Safety Plan 2009-2011(12)

. 
Work with ATO on installing runway status lights at appropriate airports to warn aircraft in position for takeoff that aircraft or vehicles occupy the runway.

. 
Explore with ATO and Jeppesen the practicality of including taxiway headings on airport diagrams.

. 
Initiate research to determine if marking hot spots with day glow-type orange paint or unique colored stop sign improves pilot situational awareness.

5.3 Recent Recommendations
Runway safety continues to receive public attention. For many years the FAA has actively invested in programs and technology development to address runway safety. The FAA believes that the technologies it is now testing and deploying will be integral in reducing both the frequency and severity of runway incursions.
While acknowledging the progress made, the FAA also recognizes the need for continued improvement in runway safety and this remains one of its top priorities. Recent recommendations have come from external entities (highlighted below) and the FAA is reviewing and responding to the recommendations in its continued effort to improve runway safety and reduce runway incursions. See Appendix C for the FAA’s response.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is an independent federal agency that Congress has charged to investigate and determine the probable cause of every civil aviation accident in the United States and certain public-use aircraft accidents. “Improve Runway Safety” continues to be on the NTSB’s “Most Wanted List” of safety improvements for 2008. The bullets below describe the NTSB’s current safety recommendations.
. 
Require, at all airports with scheduled passenger service, a ground movement safety system that will prevent runway incursions; the system should provide a direct warning capability to flight crews. In addition, demonstrate through computer simulations or other means that the system will, in fact, prevent incursions. (Source: Letter of recommendation dated July 6, 2000, to the FAA addressing runway incursions)

. 
Amend 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) section 91.129(I) to require that all runway crossings be authorized only by specific air traffic control clearance, and ensure that U.S. pilots, U.S. personnel assigned to move aircraft and pilots operating under 14 CFR Part 129 receive adequate notification of the change. (Source: Letter of recommendation dated July 6, 2000, to the FAA addressing runway incursions)

. 
Amend FAA Order 7110.65, Air Traffic Control, to require that, when aircraft need to cross multiple runways, air traffic controllers issue an explicit crossing instruction for each runway after the aircraft has crossed the previous runway.
