A control device associated with an autonomous vehicle receives sensor data and detects that the autonomous vehicle is approaching a railroad crossing based on the sensor data. The control device determines that the railroad crossing is closed from the sensor data. The control device determines one or more re-routing options from map data. The control device determines whether at least one re-routing option reaches a predetermined destination of the autonomous vehicle. In response to determining that the at least one re-routing option reaches the predetermined destination, the control device selects a particular re-routing option based at least on determining that the autonomous vehicle is able to travel according to the particular re-routing option autonomously. The control device instructs the autonomous vehicle to re-route according to the particular re-routing option.
