Abstract
A busway crossing warning system includes an approach tag reader, a crossing controller and a bus signal device. The approach tag reader is located in a bus lane on a road at a distance from an entrance of an intersection in a direction prior to a bus approaching the intersection, the bus being equipped with an identification tag. The approach tag reader detects the bus with the identification tag when the bus drives over the approach tag reader and sends out an approach signal to the crossing controller indicating the bus is approaching the intersection. The crossing controller activates bus signal device after receiving the approach signal to inform the bus is detected.
