# Melbourne low-visibility ground movement

> Melbourne low-visibility ground movement.

## Select the visibility condition

The chart distinguishes **runway visual range (RVR) below 350 m** from **RVR above 350 m**. It does not specify the exact-350-m boundary case.

The low-visibility route network is shaded grey in the source. The chart’s explicit aircraft restrictions below apply to the **A380** when RVR is **less than 350 m**.

## A380 restrictions below 350 m RVR

| Taxiway | Unavailable section |
| - | - |
| D | Between A and P |
| E | East of S |
| G | East of A |
| N | Entire taxiway |
| P | South of E |
| Q | South of E |
| R | Entire taxiway |
| S | Between W and Y |
| S | Between U and G |
| T | East of bay D9 |
| U | East of A |
| W | East of W1 |
| Y | East of A |

## Above 350 m RVR

The low-visibility chart states that **all taxiways are available** above 350 m RVR. This is the visibility condition on this sheet. The separately published [A380 ground-movement restrictions](https://www.narev.ai/docs/irl-gym/airports/melbourne/charts/a380-ground-movement.md) and [Boeing 747-8 restrictions](https://www.narev.ai/docs/irl-gym/airports/melbourne/charts/boeing-747-8-ground-movement.md) remain aircraft-specific references.

## Runway-incursion hot spots

Two locations are enlarged on the chart:

* **C near A and V**, beside the northern end of runway 16/34. The inset shows the runway holding position on C, with V joining the C/A area.
* **E crossing runway 16/34**, south of the runway intersection. Holding positions are shown on both sides of the runway.

## Layout

The [aerodrome layout](https://www.narev.ai/docs/irl-gym/airports/melbourne/charts/aerodrome-layout.md) identifies the runways, taxiways and terminal areas. Runway 09/27 is **2,286 × 45 m** and runway 16/34 is **3,657 × 60 m**; both are labelled sealed on this sheet. The low-visibility chart also enlarges the northern C/A/V junction and the E crossing.

## Frequencies

All frequencies are MHz.

| Service | Frequency |
| - | - |
| ATIS | 118.0 or 114.1 |
| Airways clearance delivery | 127.2 |
| Surface movement | 121.7 |
| Tower | 120.5 |

## Map reference

Bearings are magnetic and elevations are feet above mean sea level. Magnetic variation is **12° east**. The map scale is **1:40,000**, with a **0–800 m** scale bar. Grid labels cover **37°39′ S to 37°42′ S** and **144°49′ E to 144°52′ E**.

Chart **MMLAG04-187**, revised **9 July 2026**, from the fixed publication cycle effective **3 September 2026**.
