No, actually they are not. Multiple reasons why.

The entire staffed gate house, card reader, crossing arm &/or apparent lack of crossing arm 25% of the time or during "storms", is a very -very antiquated, personnel dependent system that should have/ could have been replaced decades ago.
Doing so would have saved substantial $$ over time, yet they keep putting in the same platform/system over & over, refusing to innovate, leading to the same issues, failures and discussion over & over.

I'm guessing it all has to do with $$$, whose making it and wanting to keep it that way...
