Dear Mr. Bland,
Please start telling the citizens of Allegheny County the truth. Since you arrived here from the giant metropolitan area of Albany, NY you have done nothing but weaken the transit system in our region. You have insulted the intelligence of our good people. First by trying to ram service cuts down our throats, and when you couldn't achieve the goal you wanted, you went to school and found your "veil" in the form of Nelson/Nygaard. You brought them in to "assess" our transit system. Needless to say if anyone has the time or the or the will to do any investigating, they will find that in two years and 1.3 million dollars of the taxpayers money later, all that Nelson/Nygaard has done is disguise the (almost exact) doomsday service cuts of 2007. Rename every route to have the appearance that they changed the whole system. Last but not least this should outrage the citizens of Allegheny County, only one, yes one new route has been created in this region. Every other change has been either a service cut or a so-called consolidation that will absolutely leave people in certain areas stranded. Thank you Steve for your dedication to destruction. Now lets all sit back and see how long it takes for the private sector to step in and fill the gaps left in the county. The State Legislators, County Council, and the citizens of this County aren't even going to know what hit them when the Port Authority's Board of "Directed" approves this worthless Transit Development Plan. It's not too late. We'll stand up and FIGHT!
