This is being driven by ICAO and CAP168 (CAA). Significant taxiways wil be lettered, and intersections between the inner and outer taxiway will be known as "links." All present cul-de-sacs will be re-lettered as part of taxiways. Runway Holding Points will become alphanumeric, requiring that current stand numbers will have to be changed to avoid possible confusion.
Hi Skipness One Echo,
I see you're getting the hang of it already! Stand 238 will become the new designator for E38, and it certainly is in Terminal 2.
