TRI-STATE TRANSPORTATION CAMPAIGN
The failure of Nassau County to fund LI Bus has led to an annulment of the operating agree-ment between the County and the MTA and the County’s pursuit of a private operator to run the bus system. Throughout this process, the County has refused to participate in an open process, rejecting requests for details of the private bidder’s plans to run the bus system. These details would allow a thoughtful analysis of the pro’s and con’s of particular operators and how those operators would compare to the current system operated by MTA. Without this detailed information, the Tri-State Transportation Campaign took it upon itself to research the three known private operators seeking to run Nassau County’s bus system.
