The Jobs to Move America coalition hand-delivered a letter to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board (Metro) outlining concerns with New Flyer, a bus manufacturing company and potential bidder for the agency’s latest purchase for 1,000 compressed natural gas (CNG) and 200 zero-emission buses.
The letter urges Metro to refrain from awarding any future contracts to New Flyer until the company resolves two pressing issues regarding recently-issued Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) violations and releasing public documents demonstrating their compliance with job commitments made in a previous contract in 2013.
