Transit board weighs takeover of New Castle authority
The New Castle Area Transit Authority may be county run as Lawrence County weighs a takeover. Chairman Larry Cioffi says no commissioners have asked for internal details, while officials discuss funding, bus shelters, and a new garage. He notes city residents should keep priority and 30 minute routes must not be cut. The authority has 2 million set aside for a new building and a shelter about to arrive.
