Fed Funds to Bolster Bay Area Transit
Bay Area transit agencies are about to get tens of millions of dollars more to maintain and replace their aging fleets of vehicles, the federal Department of Transportation announced today.
The grants, part of a $776 million outlay to 152 projects nationwide, announced in a national conference call by Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood and Federal Transit Agency head Peter Rogoff.
"This means that transit providers can finally make many of the repairs they have been putting off," LaHood said.
