Non-intrusive radar sensors allow you to coordinate your traffic systems with railroad systems.
CONTACT USWhen traffic management systems and railway systems interact, the traffic systems tend to suffer. Even well-designed traffic systems are pre-empted by railroad schedules and systems, making them less effective. An advanced pre-emption system, which allows for vehicle queue clearance at railroad crossings before the train arrives, requires train location information not provided by railroads.
Island Radar developed a non-intrusive detection system that will allow state and municipal traffic managers to anticipate a railroad crossing activation with enough time to flush any vehicle queues at crossing locations. Initiating an advanced preemptive system requires time. Modern track circuits can only give about 30-seconds warning before a crossing event – not enough time to clear a vehicle queue. With easy-to-install sensors, Island Radar’s Advanced Pre-emption System gives traffic managers all the time they need, even for systems with multiple crossings along the same corridor and crossings with complex layouts.
Island Radar’s Advanced Pre-emption System uses the same FRA-approved technologies used in the Island Radar Crossing Detection System and is the smarter, safer, more reliable choice for rail detection. Because it is easy and non-intrusive to install, with multiple mounting options, Island Radar’s sensors can be installed quickly wherever you need to detect the presence of a train.
Detection system with real-time communication to guide vehicles out of dangerous situations.
Communicate with motorists about blocked crossing soon enough for them to do something about it.
Utilize custom-engineered radar detection to keep trains and cars from meeting.
