In 2005 the Orange County Transportation Authority was named best in the country. Goodbye to all that. As little use as AU readers may have for buses, there's no getting around the fact that they're a major urban and suburban public transit mode - sometimes the only one available. When funding falls off a cliff, requiring major changes for the worse, it's not good for anybody.
OCTA's quick decline, bleak future
"Since December, the OCTA has cut 133,000 hours of bus service. The agency plans to subtract 100,000 more hours next month, and an additional 300,000 in March."
BTW, the online version of the L.A. Times has recently been redesigned and reformatted. Since I generally only use it for posting stories found in the actual newspaper I'm a little slow on the uptake, navigationwise. The new e-mail edition uses a proprietary browser to replicate the newspaper's appearance.
