The strike will shut down bus service throughout Orange County.
bus maintenance workers are set to go on strike Tuesday after negotiations between the workers' union and the Orange County Transportation Authority broke down, according to the union. Bus service throughout the county is expected to shut down as maintenance workers are set to picket as soon as 4 p.m. today.
According to the Teamsters Local 952, the strike announcement comes after OCTA walked away from negotiations earlier this week. "We understand how this labor dispute will adversely affect thousands of riders who depend on the bus system for their transportation needs," union Secretary-Treasurer Eric Jimenez said. "We have done everything in our power to avoid a strike… But when OCTA walked away from the table on Monday, they gave us no other choice. "
"That's untrue," said OCTA spokesperson Joel Zlotnik. "I won't discuss the details of the negotiations. There have been proposals back and forth, and we fully expected to continue those talks on Friday."PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Negotiations for the union representing Orange County bus maintenance workers and the county broke down Sunday. Barring a last-minute deal, bus service throughout the county will be suspended at midnight on Monday, Oct. 17.
