Narrative:

Short final to runway 16 at hpn. Captain was pm from right seat. Captain-qualified first officer was PF from left seat. Captain confirmed landing clearance at 700 ft AGL. At 200 ft AGL an avro rj crossed the runway at taxiway F. Crew saw aircraft enter the runway safety area and was about to initiate a go around when the tower ordered one. It is the recollection of both myself and the first officer that the rj was stopped at the hold short line and then began to cross the runway. We assume that a miscom occurred between the local and ground controller. Tower controller apologized prior to switching us to departure. Hpn has a busy mix of cpr; airline and GA activity. Additionally; lahso was in effect for aircraft landing runway 11. We are always prepared for a go around at hpn in these conditions.
