Gate Update
You might have noticed the entrance gate sticking in a semi-closed/semi opened position a few times over the last few months. The Gate Repair service was dispatched each time and tried different approaches to fix it. Finally, the decision was made to replace the entire gear box and that fix seems to have permanently solved the problem.
The Board is also experimenting with having the exit gate automatically stay open from 7 to 9AM and the entrance gate automatically stay open from 3:30 to 6PM, Mon – Fri. These are high traffic times for the gates and if you’ve ever watched them during these time periods, they are constantly opening and closing. In addition to saving wear and tear on the moving parts of the gate, having them stay open during these time periods leads to an easier traffic flow for our commuters. The gates will remain closed at all other times, maintaining our security level.
