AMC14 ATS.TR.210(a)(3) Operation of air traffic control service
ED Decision 2020/008/R
TAXIING ON A RUNWAY-IN-USE
(a) For the purpose of expediting air traffic, aircraft may be permitted to taxi on the runway-in-use, provided no delay or risk to other aircraft will result. Where control of taxiing aircraft is provided by a ground air traffic controller and the control of runway operations by an aerodrome air traffic controller, a clearance to taxi on the runway-in-use should be issued by the aerodrome air traffic controller once direct two-way communications between the pilot and the aerodrome air traffic controller have been established. Any subsequent instruction to change frequency should be issued by the aerodrome air traffic controller to the taxiing aircraft after it has vacated the runway.
(b) If the aerodrome air traffic controller is unable to determine, either visually or via an ATS surveillance system, that a vacating or crossing aircraft has cleared the runway, the aircraft should be requested to report when it has vacated the runway. The report should be made when the entire aircraft is beyond the relevant runway-holding position.
