The Transit, along with all the other mechanical systems in the terminal(s), probably needs to be switched on and operated every now and then just to keep things working. I don't know for a fact, but it may well be that the potential bill for deactivating systems for a long period and then reactivating them in the future means it makes sense to simply use the terminal for a short period. It would also justify retaining a minimum level of staff on hand for when business picks up again. I assume the Transit operation is largely automatic; it's not as though they have to pay drivers.
