New Deal Could Stop Port Authority Cuts

A deal is in the works to avoid cuts to Port Authority service this fall, according to a report by KDKA.

According to the report, negotiations between state, county and union officials are underway to avoid a one-third cut in service on Sept. 2.

Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald told KDKA that if the union, management, and county can come up with about $30 million, Gov. Tom Corbett will match that amount and restore service.
