The expense is probably more maintenance rather installation, but is the maintenance expense for one turnstile (even of the HEET variety, which is presumably what would be needed) really that great? In the days of tokens, they would have had to send people regularly to collect tokens from entrances that might not have any, but that is no longer a consideration. At 238th St. on the 1, there have been a number of G.O.s where downtown trains bypass the stop, and being able to ride the uptown train to 242nd to get the downtown train would have been helpful. That's not a consideration at the two track station at 145th/Lenox, but still, would one turnstile really be a major expense? |
