Due to an incident involving the 802 that leaves Downtown Salt Lake at 310pm yesterday, I've begun talks with State leaders to get more regulatory and other governmental oversight of the Utah Transit Authority.
The incident involved finding out that the disabled are now being asked to pay double what they did only a few months ago what they would otherwise be paying today had UTA not sneaked in a fare increase over and above the fuel surcharges and other regularly scheduled base fare increases.
I'll detail the issue in a later post, with more information on the incident that started it all as sescribed above, but for now the fact that a standard practice that UTA had followed for over 23 years at least, and that many relied on for a better quality of life, has been discarded without publci input and without more fully involving those affected in the decision.
