Ticket gates

Southern have installed new gates around it's network as part of a multi-million pound investment programme to help improve safety and security at each station as well as ensuring that tickets are purchased for travel prior to boarding the trains. 

Ticket gates are in operation at the following locations:

Balham Battersea Park Brighton
Carshalton Chichester East Croydon
Eastbourne Horsham Hove
Lewes London Bridge London Victoria
Norbury Peckham Rye Purley
Redhill South Croydon Streatham
Streatham Common Sutton Thornton Heath
Wallington Worthing  


Gates will also be installed at the following stations in early 2010:

Gipsy Hill
Streatham Hill

Staff will be on hand when the gates are in operation in order to assist otherwise the gates will be opened whenever they are unmanned.
