ORANGE, Calif.—Thousands of Orange County bus riders found themselves without service Thursday, with the union representing Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) maintenance workers striking over what it calls stalled labor negotiations.

The union called the walkout Wednesday—setting up picket lines at the agency’s Santa Ana and Garden Grove yards and forcing a shutdown in bus service beginning Thursday.
