@justatrainguy.bsky.socialSay hello to our new modern fare gates! These gates are designed to improve accessibility, help deter fare evasion, and speed up entering/exiting a station. We're testing several types of gates over the next few months with the goal of eventually adding them at 150 stations across all 5 boroughs.
Show PostIt hasn't been without headaches (looking at you, OMNY), but the last five years have seen the single biggest upgrade in the City Transit-Subway user/straphanger experience in probably 30 years. - New (much better) map - New fare gates (finally) - An actual ADA program - Widespread CBTC rollout
Show PostThis is fantastic news. While the subway cannot convert entirely to OPTO overnight, banning it outright was an absurd proposal. What we need is a strategic phased plan to implement OPTO over time where it makes the most sense, with a focus on improving service first and foremost
Show PostHonestly great news, but shame on the Senate + Assembly for letting it get this far.
