Multimodal Crossings (Terminator*)
This terminator represents the control equipment that interfaces to a non-road based transportation system at an interference crossing with the roadway. The majority of these crossings are railroad grade crossings that are more specifically addressed by the "Wayside Equipment" terminator. This multimodal crossing terminator addresses similar interface requirements, but for other specialized intersections like draw bridges at rivers and canals. These crossings carry traffic that may take priority over the road traffic at the intersection. The data provided will in its basic form be a simple "stop road traffic" indication. However more complex data flows may be provided that give the time at which right-of-way will be required and the duration of that right-of-way requirement.
Inputs/Outputs: Architecture Flows* and Data Flows*
Multimodal Crossings
Roadway
- multimodal crossing status (Architecture Flow*) - Indication of operational status and pending requests for right-of-way from equipment supporting the non-highway mode at multimodal crossings.
Data Flows*:

Traffic Management
- lane management inputs (Architecture Flow*) - This flow provides inputs to dynamic lane management systems including the types of vehicles to allow in each lane.
Data Flows*: - multimodal crossing status (Architecture Flow*) - Indication of operational status and pending requests for right-of-way from equipment supporting the non-highway mode at multimodal crossings.
Data Flows*:

Multimodal Crossings
- highway control status (Architecture Flow*) - Current traffic control equipment status that indicates operational status and right-of-way availability to the non-highway transportation mode at a multimodal crossing.
