TBMs typpically mean deep stations. Deep stations impose a time penalty on every rider because time is wasted simply getting to/from platforms to sidewalks. The geniuses at WMATA have given us world record depth stations which even with escalators all the way cost over5 minutes between fare control and the platforms.
Disruptionsare short term and one time costs--the ridiculous depth stations are a permanent excess cost ofoperation.
