The New York City MTA is installing barriers to stop commuters from being pushed onto tracks. Some riders have been on edge about subway pushings since the death of a woman in January 2022. The new barriers, part of a test, will be at just three stations and cost $100 million. The city will start installing barriers on three platforms in the months ahead, a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority told The New York Post. "While platform screen doors might have prevented [Go's] killing in the way that it happened, It happened on the same subway platform where there were police officers," Pearlstein told the Post.
