Area Restriction with Astar

Is there a way to limit the number of travelers allowed within an barrier within Astar? I have paths within my warehouse that I only want 1 vehicle down at a time, and I figured with the new ability to add conditions to barriers that I could limit the number of travelers in the area as well.

The conditional barrier doesn't work very well for this since the condition is evaluated at the beginning of the travel. It might work if you start the travel right next to the conditional barrier. However you would be taking over the routing a little more by telling the traveler to go to the edge of the conditional barrier before deciding if it is too full or not.
