The MTA has installed new crescent metal shields atop turnstiles at the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall/Chambers Street subway station to combat fare evasion. Despite these efforts, commuters are skeptical about their effectiveness, with some even managing to jump over or crawl under the barriers. The new shields, which only add a small barrier rather than redesigning the turnstiles, have drawn criticism for their limited impact. Observations from both riders and security personnel suggest that these measures are insufficient, raising concerns about ongoing fare evasion issues.
If you can jump 36 inches off the ground, I think you can probably jump 38 inches off the ground.
I don't feel like it's that much of a difference. It's just a little bit weird.
It's just adding a small piece instead of changing the entire design.
I saw one guy hop right over it and almost fall. It was actually funny to see.
