RTD Urged Single Fare Zone Plan For Buses
Supervisor Kenneth Hahn urged RTD to adopt a single fare zone within 30 miles of Los Angeles Civic Center. He said exact fares would curb counting change and driver risk, speed transfers, and reduce delays while improving service to Watts with criss crossing routes and simplified transfers. Burglars forced the front door of James George's home at 1005 Orange Ave and took a television valued at 136 dollars.
