A gate control apparatus includes a gate support member, an arm pivotally mounted thereto and having gate members connected to the arm, a flexible line connected to the arm, a line takeup for carrying the flexible line, and an actuator for actuating the line takeup. The gate is opened and closed by the arm either being pivotally lowered to open the gate or pivotally raised to close the gate. A radio transmitter is used to send a signal to a radio receiver which energizes a motor to either rotate a shaft and spool one way or another which either takes up the flexible line to pivotally raise the arm which closes the gate or lets out the flexible line to pivotally lower the arm which opens the gate. The user can operate this gate control apparatus without ever having to leave one's vehicle.
