JohnQPine Posted November 20, 2009 Share #4 Posted November 20, 2009 Tom Suozzi may throw a fit, I think the county may own the paratransit buses. But Suozzi may not be C.E. for much longer. And good riddance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aemoreira81 Posted November 20, 2009 Share #5 Posted November 20, 2009 No Able Ride Is InHouse and Operated by (MTA)Long Island Bus Access A Ride is managed by (MTA)New York City Transit and Contracted out to Private Companies The MTA owns Access-A-Ride, but First Transit manages the service and operations are done by various contractors. As for the stripe, it may not be Suozzi/Mangano's call on this (the recount is ongoing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
