MTA moves forward with plans to install platform doors in three subway stations

NEW YORK (WABC) -- The MTA is moving ahead with construction on a new pilot program that is aimed to make the subways much safer.

This plan is all part of a $100 million project to install sliding screen doors in as many as three subway stations.



美国纽约终于给地铁安装上了“屏蔽门”,当然这只是象征意义的,高度不够,构造简单,一看就是非常省成本的,但是这玩意的造价,3个站台花了1亿美元。纽约装这玩意的预算是70亿美元……
论贪污腐败,老美确实有一套



Are these  "sliding screen doors" which cost US$ 100 million for 3 subway stations???  Thinking

Ex leh.

Last year, 88 people were killed on the tracks. Some, because they jumped. Others, because they slipped. And then there are others, like Michelle Go, who were pushed.

......

There are 472 stations in the New York City Transit System, but just 128 where platform doors are feasible. On top of that, the cost is estimated at a whopping US$6.5 to 7 billion dollars.
