Abstract
A railway crossing guard includes a pivotable crossing gate and a set of retractable barriers on the same side of a set of railroad tracks. The pivotable crossing gate is mounted adjacent a first traffic lane to move between a lowered position and a raised position, and the retractable barriers are mounted in a line oriented parallel to the traffic lanes on a median strip between first and second traffic lanes. These retractable barriers move between a retracted position, in which the retractable barriers are substantially flush with the roadway, and an extended position, in which the retractable barriers are raised above the roadway. In the extended position, the retractable barriers are positioned to block a vehicle in front of the lowered crossing gate from crossing the median strip to drive around the lowered crossing gate.
