2-3-6. Other Markings
a. Vehicle Roadway Markings. The vehicle roadway markings are used when necessary to define a pathway
for vehicle operations on or crossing areas that are also intended for aircraft. These markings consist of a white
solid line to delineate each edge of the roadway and a dashed line to separate lanes within the edges of the
roadway. In lieu of the solid lines, zipper markings may be used to delineate the edges of the vehicle roadway.
(See FIG 2-3-18.) Details of the zipper markings are shown in FIG 2-3-19.
b. VOR Receiver Checkpoint Markings. The VOR receiver checkpoint marking allows the pilot to check
aircraft instruments with navigational aid signals. It consists of a painted circle with an arrow in the middle; the
arrow is aligned in the direction of the checkpoint azimuth. This marking, and an associated sign, is located on
the airport apron or taxiway at a point selected for easy access by aircraft but where other airport traffic is not
to be unduly obstructed. (See FIG 2-3-20.)
NOTE-
The associated sign contains the VOR station identification letter and course selected (published) for the check, the words
"VOR check course," and DME data (when applicable). The color of the letters and numerals are black on a yellow
background.
