A few days ago I was at Culver City station. These were tucked away in a back corner over by the FedEx building. I'll guess they'll be installed someday.  |

Thanks for the update.
The problem with the turnstiles is that they're essentially only effective for honest people. Is way too easy to walk in without tapping. I don't think fare evasion is much lower now than pre-turnstile. At some stations 90-95% seem to tap and at others maybe only 60-70%. Nowhere is 100%.

Still the gates do have some deterrent effect. It is one thing to not tap and a bridge a little farther to squeeze through a gate or open the handicap gate. I know people who wouldn't bother with the paper tickets or the Tap card, but with gates they wouldn't try to slip through. |
