There may be much more to it than just that. In LA, tougher fare gates are being installed to keep troublesome people and criminals out of the system. LA found that 95% of crime was committed by riders that didn’t pay their fare. So for us they’re much more of a safety feature than a revenue generator although they’re that as well.As far as revenue goes, in the first two stations where tougher gates have replaced PATH-style turnstiles paid entries have increased by 107% and 248%. |
