Corrected title:"“The idea came out at the transit committee meeting,” MTA chairman Joseph Lhota said last week. “They’re quite expensive and given the 496 stations, I think that’s the number, it’d be quite prohibitive.” An MTA spokesperson told Brown, however, that the MTA doesn’t even have the cash to conduct a study of the barriers. The spokesperson said the protective doors would more typically be done when designing a new system – not when retrofitting an older one. |
