ORANGE, Calif.—A strike by Orange County bus drivers is looming as negotiations for a new contract continue to stifle on Feb. 14, though one more meeting is planned between the union representing the drivers and their employer, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA).
The final meeting, set to happen Monday afternoon, will be “a last-ditch effort” for the transportation authority to negotiate a new contract with Teamsters Local 952, which represents about 600 Orange County Bus drivers, the union’s spokeswoman, Margie Stites, told The Epoch Times.
