Finally! Platform screen doors should be installed at every
existing subway station where it's possible, and should be standard for
every new station built.
They prevent people
from being shoved/jumping onto the tracks, prevent trash from being
thrown onto the tracks and starting fires, and allow ventilation/climate
control for the platforms so all that brake dust doesn't flow towards
where people are standing.
