A tool for a crossing aid on a mobile device. The tool determines, by a first computer processor, a unique ID associated with a crossing signal. The tool searches, by the first computer processor, for a wireless access point (WAP) having the unique ID. The tool determines, by the first computer processor, whether the WAP having the unique ID is found. Responsive to determining that the WAP having the unique ID is found, the tool determines, by the first computer processor, haptic feedback. The tool initiates, by the first computer processor, the haptic feedback on the mobile device to aid in crossing.
