All but 2 Opal gates out of order, shared from both directions. Ridiculous.
I wonder if they're going to pin this on industrial action or COVID.

Even when they’re all working there’s not enough.
The designer of this Opal gates is very inconsiderate. Have an open tap gate
I get this is bad, but have you also seen what they do at Wynyard when trying to get home?
At 5 pm, they’ve got more outgoing gates open than ingoing gates. How does that make sense?
Why don’t they just have many locations on the platform where people have to tap on…. It’s only really the tap off bit that needs to be controlled.
Why not just take the Metro? I’m on it now and it’s running smoothly. Robots > Humans.
Get rid of that glass panel, add more gates!
please..
The reason this side is conjested is because everyone is coming from the densely populated marrickville side, where the train station has been shut down for a year. When that reopens this side will not be as busy.
Patience people!
Is it from flooding last night?
Insane how few they installed
I’ve missed the train being in the line, I’ve also thought I tapped on in the rush of 50-100 people coming off the pink buses when the barriers were opened only to find out tapping off at the other end I was charged full fare for not tapping on.
I don’t know why so few barriers are open. Also when there are metro staff available they’re on the platform and never checking the gates.
I have no idea why when they build the metro they didn’t built the stations larger, dual tracks each way and more carriages. I get the metro and its always packed like sardines.
Keep that population exploding while failing to keep up infrastructure. Well done, Labor.
I’ve literally logged at least 3-4 email complaints about the lack of gates on Sydenham western side and I get the same copy and paste response.
I’ll keep on complaining!
*Old man yells at cloud*
Industrial COVID action of course. The virus is on strike.
And a couple of minutes later the bus has cleared and there is no queue.
