Even if you could do that, the system is built at grade throughout the city and so you can't literally fence out the entire system because it crosses roads. voice-verified

Vehicles have to cross and that could create voice-verified

a new safety concern for fare evasion where someone might try to walk up the tracks to gain access to the station, which is also very, very dangerous. voice-verified

We see what happens sometimes when people don't pay attention and cross the tracks without doing that. voice-verified

And so there are a variety of reasons. voice-verified

I think it's something that we can continue to look at. voice-verified

But I believe because of how we have built the system, and there are benefits to how we built it, it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to go back and change that decision today. voice-verified

One thing I'll add on AI, because I do think AI will continue to evolve as a very helpful tool for security. voice-verified

We have had conversations with AI vendors who, as you contract with them, your video feed goes through their AI software and can help to identify almost immediately weapons, if someone's carrying a weapon or has a weapon. voice-verified

One of the limitations or that we want to see develop, at least with the vendor we were talking to, is their software was very, very effective at identifying firearms. voice-verified

It was not effective at identifying fixed blade weapons and knives or other things. voice-verified

So we are excited about, and I think many transit agencies are, about that continuing evolution of technology to be even more effective. voice-verified

that' s voice-verified

Yes and. voice-verified

So the security forces that are in the contract are a mix of certified law enforcement officers, armed security guards, and unarmed security guards. voice-verified

It is a mix, so it is all three. voice-verified

Yeah, so I think there's two ways, and I'll let Lee answer from the company perspective, and then we'll talk about the city perspective as well. voice-verified

Again, that was asked. voice-verified

I do not have the answer, but we will get you the exact number. voice-verified

We'll follow up with that. voice-verified
