BART officials are poised next month to spend approximately $47 million for the development of new fare gates in an effort to crack down on fare evasion.
Infrastructure officials with the transit agency formally recommended Thursday that BART should award a contract to Virginia-based STraffic America for the first phase of replacing some 700 fare gates across all of BART's stations.
BART officials argue it will be significantly harder to push through, jump over or otherwise evade the new gates. The transit agency estimates fare evasion costs BART up to $25 million in fare revenue each year.Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter.
