WMKC AD 2.20 LOCAL TRAFIC REGULATIONS (ADDITIONAL)
2. Taxiing to and from stands

No aircraft movement is allowed at closed portions of apron taxiway, aircraft stand taxi lane, parking bays and taxiways. The routes to be used by aircraft when taxiing into, on and out of the apron will be specified by ATC. The issuance of taxi route by ATC does not relieve the pilot-in-command of the responsibility to maintain separation with other aircraft on the movement area or to comply with ATC directions intended to regulate aircraft movement. Pilots are advised to take note of the precautions on the presence of open excavation, workers, construction materials and construction equipment, particularly when taxiing adjacent to the apron and aircraft bays/stand while works within the cordoned/barricaded areas are in progress. During Phase 2A & Phase 2B, new Bay 6, Bay 7 and Bay 8 shall operate for A20N/A21N, B738/B739 aircraft. New Bay 9 shall operate for A20N/A21N, B738/B739 and AT75/AT76 aircraft. New Bay 10 and Bay 11 shall operate for AT75/AT76 aircraft. All bays shall be Power-In Push-Back operation. Bay 11A shall operate for B738/B739 and Power-In Power-Out operation.
