B737 TAXIING TO THE GATE AT CLE CROSSED HOLD LINE FOR RWY 24L.

Narrative

WE WERE CLRED FOR A VISUAL APCH TO RWY 24L IN CLE. ABOUT 5 MI OUT; WE WERE TOLD TO SWITCH TO TWR AND WERE CLRED TO LAND ON RWY 24R. AFTER LNDG ON RWY 24R; TWR INSTRUCTED US TO CLR THE RWY; TURN L ON TXWY G; R ON TXWY S; AND HOLD SHORT OF RWY 24L (RWY 24C WAS CLOSED). AS I TURNED ONTO TXWY S; I VERBALIZED TO MY FO; 'CROSS RWY 24C; HOLD SHORT RWY 24L.' AS WE WERE XING RWY 24C; I REMARKED THAT THE TXWY WAS VERY POORLY MARKED. ON THE S SIDE OF RWY 24C; TXWY S WIDENS CONSIDERABLY. I CONTINUED ACROSS RWY 24C; CROSSED WHAT I BELIEVED WAS THE HOLD SHORT BAR FOR RWY 24C; AND STOPPED WELL SHORT OF WHAT I BELIEVED WAS THE HOLD SHORT FOR RWY 24L. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN IN THE HABIT OF NOT TAXIING ALL THE WAY UP TO A HOLD SHORT BAR IF POSSIBLE. AN RJ HAD BEEN CLRED FOR TKOF ON RWY 24L. WHEN THAT ACFT PASSED US; TWR CLRED US ACROSS RWY 24L AND TOLD US TO CONTACT GND. AS I PROCEEDED TO CROSS RWY 24L; I NOTICED THAT THE SECOND HOLD SHORT BAR WAS ACTUALLY FOR ACFT HOLDING SHORT OF RWY 24C TAXIING THE OTHER DIRECTION. AT THAT POINT; I REALIZED I HAD CROSSED THE HOLD SHORT FOR RWY 24L. WE CONTACTED GND CTL AND PROCEEDED TO THE GATE NORMALLY. NEITHER TWR OR GND CTL MENTIONED ANYTHING TO US; AND I BELIEVE THAT THEY DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THAT WE HAD CROSSED THE HOLD SHORT BAR. I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT I CROSSED THE HOLD SHORT FOR RWY 24L BY 5-8 FT. AFTER WE WERE PARKED; I DOUBLE-CHKED THE CLE GND CHARTS. I WAS WELL AWARE OF THE PROX OF RWYS 24L AND 24C AND THE RWY INCURSION 'HOT SPOT X' FOR TXWY S. WHAT I FAILED TO REALIZE IS THAT WHEN TAXIING SBOUND; THE HOLD SHORT FOR RWY 24L IS THE FIRST HOLD SHORT BAR YOU GET TO. I HAD MISTAKEN THAT BAR FOR THE HOLD SHORT FOR RWY 24C. INTUITIVELY; YOU WOULD THINK THAT WHEN EXITING A RWY; THE FIRST HOLD SHORT BAR YOU CROSS WOULD BE FOR THAT RWY. THIS IS NOT THE CASE IN CLE. IF I HAD PAID CLOSER ATTN TO THE ACTUALLY PAINTED MARKINGS; I WOULD HAVE NOTICED. THE HOLD SHORT LINES ARE DEPICTED ON THE 10-9 PAGE; BUT THERE IS NOTHING DEPICTING WHICH LINE IS WHICH. THE ONLY PLACE IT SHOWS THAT INFO IS IN THE INSET.
