What amazes me is why anyone would move here having the assumption that the gates are to keep people out. Does no one do a second of research? The gates are for safety. For example, the next time you’re in your cart, or bicycle or walking on the MMP and need to cross a road behind a gate/guard shack, imagine safely doing that without the gates regulating traffic. Furthermore, when a gate arm has been broken off, check out the vehicles who drive through at 30mph without even slowing or stopping to check for cross traffic.

Again, you really don’t know why there are gates here ?
