Pittsburgh Mayor Fights Pittsburgh fare hike plan
Mayor David L. Lawrence joined city officials in a huddle over the proposed trolley and bus fare increase after the Pennsylvania Utilities Commission granted the Pittsburgh Railways Co. permission to raise trolley fares to 12 cents and buses to 15 cents. City Solicitor Anne X. Alpern said an appeal to the Superior Court may be the only option, noting Philadelphia recently won a similar challenge reversing the rate rise.
