All double gates, such as the one at the Bonnybrook exit, can have no more than a 40-inch opening.

The Standard says "the closest part of the gate arm and support shall have a lateral offset of
AT LEAST 2 feet from the face of the curb or the edge of the traveled way" (emphasis mine). As I read this, it that means the opening
COULD BE 3 feet, 4 feet or more.
It looks to me as if TV is using the Standard to justify changing the gates for some other reason than just to comply with this "law". What are the reasons? They should be in the minutes of the meeting where the decision was made.
