Given the amount recently spent to replace the control boards, I don’t see the gates changing significantly anytime soon.

Finding that the attendants are no longer necessary might be an option. With the red button to open the gate and Nav systems to find homes there is less need for a person at the gate. Plus, as pointed out above, when the attendants choose to facilitate traffic flow by holding the gates open they make things dangerous.
