  1. Metro admits it may have to cut service as it struggles with money problems
     

     Metro's General Manager Randy Clarke says the transit system could see service cuts as soon as spring if the agency is not able to close the $750 million dollar gap in next year's budget….……

     

    Last month, Metro posted plans for how it could make up the financial shortfall. In a worst-case scenario, Metro says it could cut more than 60% of its service. Eliminating as many as 95 of its 134 bus routes and bumping wait times between trains from 6 to 12 minutes, up to 20 to 30 minutes. 

    Several Metro stations could be forced to close entirely and train service would end by 9:30 p.m., according to the transit agency. All while fares would go up.
