24VAC30-21-50: Placement of airport or heliport facilities

No airport runways, heliports, or similar facilities, either private or commercial, may be placed adjacent to highway rights-of-way in such a manner as to impede the safe flow of vehicular traffic. Runways or similar facilities shall be placed a proper distance to allow a minimum glide slope for aircraft of 3° approaching said runway, or at a height over the roadway of 30 feet, whichever is greater. All airports or heliports proposed in the vicinity of highway rights-of-way shall take these minimum road clearances into consideration when planning the location of the end of their runways.
