The present disclosure is directed to a traffic signal apparatus communication system and methods of communicating traffic information to vehicles using same. The traffic signal apparatus communication system includes a traffic signal apparatus for providing a message to a vehicle. The apparatus includes at least one spatially encoded marker, and the vehicle is configured to receive returns of a radar signal from the spatially-encoded marker. At least one controller of the vehicle is configured to determine the message encoded by the spatially-encoded marker based on the returns and to control the vehicle based on the message. The message may include a value indicating a time to a transition of a new state of the traffic signal apparatus, where the new state includes emission of light from one of a first light source, a second light source, or a third light source of the traffic signal apparatus.
