Haneda Airport Runway C to Introduce Runway Status Lights

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism will start construction work from the late night of September 27 to introduce the Runway Status Lights (RWSL) on the C runway of Haneda Airport.

Following an airplane collision accident at Haneda Airport in January, the installation was recommended by the interim report of the Haneda Airport Aircraft Collision Accident Measures Committee. It suggested expanding the introduction of the RWSL, an alert system for pilots and others, to all runways and taxiways at major airports where landings and takeoffs on the same runway are anticipated as a measure against runway incursions.

After completing the construction and conducting trial adjustments, the system will be gradually put into operation starting from the end of fiscal year 2027.
