LOS ANGELES—Following recent violent attacks tied to the region’s transit system, Metro’s Board of Directors May 23 approved two motions to bolster public safety on buses, rails and stations by deploying more officers and exploring ways to incorporate technology to prevent crimes.
The board voted unanimously to approve a motion introduced by Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Board of Directors chair, and a second motion introduced by Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath, a member of the board.
