Abstract
According the application of the invention when barriers are lowered, first are lowered barrier in front rails after, in adjustable time delay, that barrier behind rails, what allow to vehicles clear out rail area. Sensor advantageously senses area on rails and in case of any obstruction for railway train delays lowering of barriers or stops it till the time when obstruction leaves rails. In the same time it transmits alarm into dispatching of train transport and into coming railway train by means of wireless connection. It simultaneously activates alarm siren and advantageously voice announcement calling for releasing of rails.

A system for securing of safety of railroad crossing comprising:
- a warning traffic sign of the railroad crossing and/or a light railroad crossing safety signaling equipment, preferably formed by warning lights of the crossing,
- a detecting unit of state of the crossing for detecting the state of a railroad crossing,
- a control unit for processing the information about the state of the railroad crossing from the detecting unit of state of the crossing and for controlling at least one of the units:
- a barrier a stopper of vehicles, a voice unit an alarm siren, a slow down section, traffic sign “End of the speed limit”,
- the stopper of vehicles for stopping vehicles arriving to a railway crossing during a warning signalization, which is activated at the beginning of a railroad crossing warning signalization and deactivated optionally during the active state of the warning signalization, or on the end.
A method for securing of safety of railroad crossing comprising:
