Narrative:
Upon landing on toa runway 11L I exited on taxiway H. After clearing the hold line and contacting ground control I inadvertently passed the hold line for runway 11R. The hold line is difficult to see and the taxiway doesn't actually cross runway 11R; making the usual visual cues non-existent (the taxiway actually crosses the extended centerline of runway 11R approximately 150 ft to the southeast of the end of the runway). I believe freshly painted lines and some above ground signage would help prevent such an occurrence. I infrequently use this airport which aggravates the potential of this occurrence.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: PA32 PLT HAS RWY INCURSION AT TOA ON TXWY H AND THE EXTENDED CTRLINE OF RWY 29L/11R.
Narrative: UPON LANDING ON TOA RWY 11L I EXITED ON TXWY H. AFTER CLRING THE HOLD LINE AND CONTACTING GROUND CONTROL I INADVERTENTLY PASSED THE HOLD LINE FOR RWY 11R. THE HOLD LINE IS DIFFICULT TO SEE AND THE TXWY DOESN'T ACTUALLY CROSS RWY 11R; MAKING THE USUAL VISUAL CUES NON-EXISTENT (THE TXWY ACTUALLY CROSSES THE EXTENDED CTRLINE OF RWY 11R APPROX 150 FT TO THE SE OF THE END OF THE RWY). I BELIEVE FRESHLY PAINTED LINES AND SOME ABOVE GROUND SIGNAGE WOULD HELP PREVENT SUCH AN OCCURRENCE. I INFREQUENTLY USE THIS ARPT WHICH AGGRAVATES THE POTENTIAL OF THIS OCCURRENCE.
