No PAT Cuts, New Contract Saves Transit from the New Pittsburgh Courier
"By a decisive 10-1 margin, members of the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 85 approved a concession-laden new contract in an effort to stave off the elimination of more than 500 jobs and 35 percent of Port Authority of Allegheny County bus and trolley service. That vote, saving an estimated $60 million over the four-year contract, led to a cascade of events culminating in an Aug. 21 Press conference where PennDOT Secretary Barry J. Schoch announced the state would provide Between $30-35 million per year over the life of the contract."
