I don’t understand how MTA ever thought this particular gate design was going to discourage fare evasion. This is a fail in my opinion.

@AL5520 6 ай бұрын

Those are just a test to see how it goes. They will test other models as well. In any casevthey said that since they installed those there was a 20% rise in fare collection at this station.

@@AL5520 Thanks for this info. I suppose a 20% increase in fare collection is good, depending on where the measurements begin. Just from this video, however, it was clear that fare evasion is still quite possible and easy to accomplish by those not wanting to pay. I will be interested to see what the other gate entry devices are like.

@AL5520 6 ай бұрын

@@brucewilkinson8599 There is no 100% fare evasion system. We have similar fate gates for years in most stations, they are different as the plexiglass is higher (in both directions), has no frame and moves to the side (this model is among the others the MTA is considering) and in some places even plexiglass around to gates but there are passenger that bypass them but a good one will minimize the number. The MTA also looked at one that has an alarm when someone walks behind a paying passenger so they might tray it in the future. Where I live there are far less fare evasions but e few times someone tried to pass behind me, I don't let them but I'm not sure this will be a wise thing to do in NYC.

Deterrence is the goal - just don’t see the present example in this video as the best solution - an alarm might be an additional help.

@yvr2002rtw 6 ай бұрын

They should use double gates. When entering, the first gate opens without having to tap the fare card, then you walk into a "buffer" area. In order to continue moving forward you need to tap your fare card while inside the buffer area and the second gate then opens. If you do not have a fare card or accidentally enter the buffer area, all you can do is move backwards and the first gate would open to let you out.

You can't do that. People get robbed like that. You get trapped within those double gates, someone comes in keeps you trapped in and robs you. Its a horrifying idea. Its one of the main reasons why I don't use the spindle gate. A woman expired within the spindle gate as she got mugged and the criminal stabbed her while keeping her trapped within the spindle gate. She expired (sorry can't say the D-Word on KZfaq), she was found 2 hours later.

BTW, I’ve opened the emergency gate for tourists because those full height turnstiles trapped someone! Geez, the list goes and and on. But yes MTA totally spend multi millions on guards and new gadgets.

@karenweaver8957 6 ай бұрын

You are right about the the countless times, they take money off your card and still won't open the gate. I remember one time at Canal Street in Chinatown there were 20 of us in line with the same issue, we each only had $2.50 left on our cards, enough to get to our destinations, and we scanned the machine and it took our $2.50, but refused to open the turnstile. We all had to buy new cards and try again, so it cost me $5.00 to ride one way instead of $2.50. Do they take into account how many people end up paying double fares, because many times those stupid turnstiles won't open? I hate those stupid cards!! I rode the subway for years with tokens and never once had a problem!! I seldom go into NY any more, and avoid the subway as much as possible!! 8:24

Interesting. They probably expected some fare evasion, it seemed like the focus was more on not having to hire security to guard the emergency gates. Curious to see how many more people evade with the new gates vs the old. And might still need to hire security guards too. Wonder why they chose those gates, which seem like they're gonna break easily, instead of the scary ones that move suddenly and fold into their housing with a loud noise, and snap closed quickly behind you, they seem like they're gonna cut your legs off if you mess with them. The cost of maintaining these new gates might be more than the cost of security + fare evasion of the old fare entry system.

@TwstedTV 6 ай бұрын

Security guards can't do anything. They have no law enforcement authority. And they are also unarmed. Its dangerous. What NYC needs to do is hire more police officers JUST for the transit system and stand near the gates. Problem is that this video showed 2 police officers on their phones and missed all the fare evasions happening right in front of them. Because they are 40 feet away from the fare gates, instead of standing inside the system near the gates and watching the gates. MTA is losing more fares because of this new system because groupings passing through as one fare.

This is nice in practice but Piggybacking will replace turnstile jumping. I’d say the MTA should look into what BART is doing with their new faregates but they’re testing it out so it’ll be a while. Looks nice but fare evasion will still exist so this option will most likely not be in use systemwide. The only fare gate that stops fare evasion is the Iron Maiden but that takes up too much space and isn’t efficient for the amount of foot traffic going back and forth.

Those "platform gates" aka electronic turnstiles were made more for travelers with suitcases than anyone else since it's Jamaica/Archer and upstairs is the LIRR AND the air train. They have been at most London tube / train stations for years. What NYC transit should have is the zoning system where you have to swipe your Metrocard to get OUT of the station as well, and there needs to be more police at the train stations. This is ridiculous since there is always a heavy police presence at Jamaica/Archer.

A couple months ago, I pushed the button to exit the gate and someone entered while the gate was still open. Now, when I use the gates to exit, if I see someone approaching to enter, I stand in front of them until they close. Not saying they weren't going to pay, but I don't know that. I pay for transit and they should, too. The STM is bleeding money. Nowadays, I see a lot of people get on the bus without paying and the drivers aren't allowed to stop them in case of violence (however I've seen drivers tell the passenger to get off).

Since contactless payments are going to be the future anyway, why not make the space between the two sides of any entry turnstile be a "readable" area, therefore the actual design and function of the swinging gate would be less critical because if they are carrying a contactless payment "method" (card or phone) it would still deduct fare even if the try to sneak through behind paying riders or custodial employees? I would guess that the majority of fare evaders still probably have a payment method on their person if if they occasionally evade. Sure it's a little creepy (big brother and all) but wouldn't that work for the most part and significantly reduce evasion?

I think the faregates have a higher bottom that is high above the floor to allow ducking the faregates. The fare evasion problem is not completely solved yet. Christian people call fare evasion "Stealing a ride."

I bet they paid some contractors about 12 million dollars to construct these gates that people are still sneaking through, what a waste as usual, then they want more money from “ Congestion Pricing “, to give to other gate geniuses

Law and Order is the only way as it was in the 1990s. Don't pay then do community service or jail and fines!!!

This doesnt work. Instead why not make a pass like ez pass for everyone. In order to enter the subway system ya need it. The gates, like customs entry. no entry to the subway without it.

That transit worker should be responsible for letting those people in without paying

Definitely, these new gates only make the fare evasion problem worse.

This is stupid, might as well make public transportation free in the whole state and just add a tax to the people.

I just don''t understand how can they actually do that. They clearly have ability to pay based on their appearance and yet, they avoid to pay for the service they are getting. I would be so ashamed doing that while someone seeing me doing that, and these people clearly don't give a single f while avoiding paying.

They're disrespectful, entitled jerks. If they were a store owner and they caught someone shoplifting a chocolate bar, they wouldn't hesitate to call the police.
