The real reason seems to be that Metro has spent a lot of money to get our smart card - EZ Pass - up and running. Several transit board and city council people have hinted that the reason that it isn't yet up and running is that it won't work without barriers. Supposedly the fare inspectors were to have been given a little portable card reader, but those are either unreliable (dunno) or maybe they realized that they would be too time consuming (for sure). |
