Automatic Gates To Be Installed At Two MTR Stations

The MTR Corporation on Monday said it will start installing automatic platform gates at Racecourse Station and Tai Po Market Station on the East Rail Line in the middle of next year.

Allen Ding, a general manager with the MTR, said the design of the platforms will make the installation easier than at other stations.

“We will start the installation at these two stations first, and once we have accumulated the experience and further improved the work flow, we will continue to install the automatic platform gates at other stations,” he said.
