THE PILOT COLLIDED WITH A FENCE WHILE TAXIING ON AN AIRPORT ACCESS ROAD, WHICH HE HAD MISTAKEN FOR THE TAXIWAY. ALTHOUGH THE PILOT SHOULD HAVE EXERCISED BETTER JUDGEMENT, IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THIS SAME TYPE OF MISHAP HAS OCCURRED BEFORE. AFTER A TELEPHONE CONVERSATION WITH THE DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS AT LOVE FIELD, STEPS WILL BE TAKEN TO DISTINGUISH THE INTERSECTION OF ALPHA RUNWAY AND THE ACCESS ROAD.
