Which of these is NOT a primary access/egress limitation?

Access and egress limitations are constraints that affect how people and vehicles can reach and leave a building or site, impacting safety and emergency response. Having only one access route reduces redundancy, making it harder to evacuate or for responders to enter if that route is blocked. A cul-de-sac creates a dead end, which limits exit options and can complicate emergency access. Taxi distance refers to how far a vehicle must travel from the street to the building or between points on site; longer taxi distances can slow response times and hinder safe egress. Back-taxi is a term from aviation describing aircraft maneuvering on the ground to back away from the gate. It does not describe a ground-access/egress limitation for a building or site, so it isn’t a primary access/egress limitation.
