Taxiway

n. paved strips at airport used by aircraft taxiing between hangars and terminals and runways

A taxiway is a path on an airport connecting runways with ramps, hangars, terminals and other facilities. They mostly have hard surface such as asphalt or concrete, although smaller airports sometimes use gravel or grass.Busy airports typically construct high-speed or rapid-exit taxiways in order to allow aircraft to leave the runway at higher speeds. This allows the aircraft to vacate the runway quicker, permitting another to land in a shorter space of time. For exhaustive information on taxiways please refer to Aeronautical Information Manual published yearly by Federal Aviation Administration.
