Narrative:

Cle runway 6L runway markings are completely missing. Look like they have been sand blasted off; which they probably have by snow removal. Given the confusing runway/taxiway layout at cle and the number of runway incursions which happen here; it seems the airport operator should make every attempt to ensure the visual aids necessary for safe navigation on the airport are in place.
