Runway Safety Program

The Runway Safety Program is an organized effort by aviation authorities to prevent accidents and incidents on or near runways. It involves monitoring, communication, and procedures to ensure pilots, air traffic controllers, and ground crews work together safely. The program uses data analysis, training, and technology to identify risks such as runway incursions, which are unauthorized entries onto the runway, or other hazards. Its goal is to enhance situational awareness and coordination, minimizing the chance of collisions or accidents during aircraft movements on the ground, thus ensuring safer operations for all airport users.
