The South Station fare gates are again in service after they had been shut down following a main statewide snowstorm.

The gates closed after a big winter storm introduced frigid temperatures and 16 to 23 inches of snow to totally different elements of Boston between Jan. 25 and 26, stated the MBTA.

The brand new commuter rail fare gates had been inspected and turned on once more after over per week of closure, commuter rail operator Keolis stated.

“Workers from vendor Scheidt & Bachmann will now resume the ultimate testing and commissioning for the gates,” a spokesperson from Keolis stated, referring to the corporate that made the gates.

The fare gates had been put in in December 2025. Different Boston stations like Again Bay and Ruggles are anticipated to obtain the brand new gates in early 2026, the MBTA web site says.
