SANTA ANA, Calif.—The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) is getting sued for $50 million by a company it hired to construct the rail system for the OC Streetcar, according to a lawsuit filed earlier this month in the county’s Superior Court.
Walsh Construction, the company hired by the transit authority, said in the Mar. 4 lawsuit that OCTA had breached its $220 million contract to build the route, noting that while the extent of the damages is not yet known, it will be at least $50 million.
