The Metropolitan Transportation Authority is expanding the use of turnstile gates in New York City subway stations to combat fare evasion. These new barriers, designed to restrict entry without proper payment, will be installed at select locations as part of ongoing efforts to secure transit revenue. The move follows rising concerns over unauthorized access, which has led to financial losses for the city’s public transportation system. Riders will need valid fare cards or tickets to pass through the gates, reinforcing existing policies against fare avoidance.
