Which lights are used to illuminate the taxiway?

Taxi lights are specifically designed to illuminate the taxiway, providing pilots with visibility during ground operations. These lights help ensure safe navigation while the aircraft is taxiing to or from the runway, particularly in low-light conditions or at night. Unlike landing lights, which provide illumination for takeoff and landing, taxi lights focus on the immediate surrounding area of the taxiway.

Runway turnoff lights also serve a similar purpose but are more aimed at assisting with turns off the runway rather than illuminating the entire taxiway. Strobe lights are primarily used to enhance the visibility of the aircraft to others, particularly during flight operations, and are not intended for ground illumination. Therefore, taxi lights are the most appropriate choice for this particular function.
