The MTA says it would be too expensive to install subway platform doors despite the recent spate of people being violently shoved onto tracks. The barriers which prevent people accessing the tracks at stops and open only when a train arrives are unbelievably expensive, Interim Transit President Sarah Feinberg testified Wednesday in response to questions from Councilman Peter Koo (D-Queens) about how to prevent the repeated attacks plaguing the system. Weve looked at it. I will just tell you its a multi-billion dollar, I think it was a $2 billion solution, to put these in just a portion of our stations, Feinberg told Koo. Given the nature of our system, the way our platforms are built, the way our trains come in, and the end, how long our trains are, its slightly complicated, she said. They would be possible in some stations, but would be an extremely expensive solution to something that is typically viewed as a problem that happens on occasion, and not very often. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 ...

Yeah, it's much cheaper to remove benches so homeless can't sleep on them.

Everyone wants them to put in elevators and refurbish stations and upgrade track signals while not raising fares at all so this isn't going to ever happen.

I havent heard of the shoving before this, but like 4 times in the last two months a train has been delayed because someone got hit at a further stop, which seemed like a lot for the time span. I wonder if this has to do with it
