Changes in sight for those who use the metro in Naples. It's no longer time for free travel or excursions without a ticket.
It is precisely the one who communicates the news ANM through a measure that will start immediately.
Metro Line 1 gets a new look, introducing a reinvigorated controller team and ready to act. But what exactly will change for commuters and occasional users?
More checks throughout the service hours
Here end the golden times for those who thought they could commute without paying. There Line 1 of the Neapolitan metro gets its "wings", thanks to 18 new OPI controller units.
These public transport vigilantes they will be in action over two shifts, covering from morning to night.
So if you were hoping for a free ride after midnight, think twice!
Control of user flows
But it's not just about tickets.
La new OPI brigade also has the task of manage the movement and flow of passengers, acting as real human "trafficking managers". They won't just be there to catch tax evaders, but also to ensure that everything runs smoothly, without any hitches or congestion.
This will help in managing blockages due to too many users, given that, despite the new trains already implemented, the number of users is still greater than the capacity and sometimes waiting times are still long.
Fortunately, this is a situation that will be resolved with the entry of other trains, but a little patience is still needed.
Block at the turnstiles, without a ticket you can't pass
Here comes the focal point of this revolution. The turnstiles will no longer be just an annoying obstacle to overcome: they have now become the true gate guardians.
There will be no more excuses: without a ticket entry will be denied.
More checks and more security
This initiative doesn't just stop at anti-evasion. These refurbished and well-organized controllers are also a extra bulwark for general security. In case of emergencies or other critical issues, they will be ready to intervene, making the metro a safer place for everyone.
It is hoped that this will lead to a reduction in muggers on subway trains.
