Fast fare checking and flow control

Metro stations present a demanding environment for entrance control. They provide the ideal means of crowd management, controlling flows in and out of stations. High volumes of passengers require fast and simple access, often in a rush to catch the next train service. They must also present an effective visual deterrent to the prevalence of fraudulent access. Tailgating, piggybacking and other tactics used by fare dodgers to avoid payment need to be detected.

Gunnebo Entrance Control metro gates allow transit operators to provide a seamless access system to passengers while also dealing with the continual issue of fare dodging. Providing a robust defence against unauthorised access with intuitive flow control.

Higher passenger safety

Metro systems face unique challenges, from managing high passenger volumes to reducing fare evasion and ensuring commuter safety. Gunnebo provides advanced security solutions that streamline operations, enhance passenger protection, and minimise the need for extensive staffing.

By integrating Entrance Control (EC) and Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM), our metro security solutions include automated fare gates, access control barriers, and perimeter protection to ensure seamless passenger movement while deterring unauthorised entry. These measures not only improve security but also enhance operational efficiency, allowing transit authorities to focus resources where they are needed most.

With Gunnebo’s comprehensive metro security solutions, transport networks can create a safer, more efficient, and cost-effective transit environment for both passengers and operators.
