DESCRIPTION
"as Post reporters discovered, namely that the doors stay open for about five seconds — giving fare-beaters plenty of time to scurry through on the heels of paying customers. This happened several times at the Queens station — as did people going through in pairs with only a single ticket swipe. “One person will pay and three will go through,” an MTA employee at the station told The Post. “Or someone goes through with a stroller and the others just walk through. When I see them, I say, ‘No, you gotta pay. I don’t let them through.” It’s not quite the rollout the agency wanted for the new design, installed late last year as part of a test of potential remedies to the fare-beating plague that robbed $690 million from the city’s coffers in 2022. The array replaced the decades-old turnstiles with tall metal paddles that were ostensibly tougher to jump over or crawl under. They also make it easier for subway riders with bags or luggage to get through — a definite plus at a station that connects to the JFK AirTrain via the larger Jamaica Station complex. The 8th Avenue-Penn Station A/C/E was slated to be the second station to get the new setup, which cost about $700,000 to install. “I don’t think I’ve seen technology that’s perfect in any city, frankly,” Rich Davey, the MTA’s top executive for the city subway and bus systems, said at the system’s Dec. 4 unveiling. “But this is obviously going a long way to improving our current turnstile system.”" - NYPOST | Posted by Thrillz
