At locations like this with a very high rate of violations, yes.According to the link below, the cost is under $80,000, which unfortunately - given the number of violations - would soon pay for itself.I was thinking the cameras and their monitoring would be more expense than the gate.The solution is simple - put red light cameras at grade crossings.
Institute a $1,000 fine for personal vehicles, $50,000 fine to commercial vehicles.
The cameras will pay for themselves, then pay for quad gates or whatever the best solution is, then can get moved to the next intersection.
