Just went home via Tulse Hill and can't understand how rumoured Oyster
gates are going to work without closing the subway to pedestrians.
Can someone pls enlighten me?


Either the station is not getting gates, or if it does then the subway
will gated in and closed for public access. I don't know what the
plans are, but if I was to guess I'd say Tulse Hill won't be gated.


The default option for most South London stations seems to be
standalone validators (of the DLR 'armoured' type) by the exits
(including 'when the ticket office is closed' side gates, so I expect
(unless anyone knows differently) that will happen at Tulse Hill. For
example, Shortlands now has 4 - 2 either side of the entrance to the
ticket office and 2 either side of the side gate. Unusually generous
and commonsensical for UK transport provision :-P
