ORANGE : 3 Bus Stops Restored After Complaints
- Share via
After protests by senior citizens, the City Council has voted to restore three bus stops that were recently canceled.
The three stops at the intersection of Glassell Street and Almond Avenue were discontinued the first week of December after the Orange County Transportation Authority rerouted bus lines to facilitate access to the city’s new commuter rail facility, which opened Dec. 6.
However, scores of senior citizens complained to the council that the terminations caused hardships by greatly increasing the walking distance to other bus stops.
City officials expect the three bus stops on Route 53, 59 and 69 to resume operation by today.
