"The alarms are pretty much gone now for the most part, though there may be a couple of stragglers," M.T.A. spokesperson Kevin Ortiz told BuzzFeed News.
Ortiz said the alarms routinely feature among the top complaints from New York subway riders. "Part of the reason why we made the decision to remove them is that we listened to our customers, and it was one of the things we heard about the most for customer complaints," he said.
"They did very little to deter fare evasion so the decision to remove them was easy," Ortiz said.
The alarms began being switched off at locations with subway agents over a year ago, but the M.T.A. has now finalized the process of removing them from non-staffed exits.
