Milwaukee County Transit System managing director Lloyd Grant is resigning. Grant will be leaving May 1, 2013.
This comes after a few questionable decisions from MCTS, such as arranging for fareboxes that don’t produce transfers, stonewalling low income and youth bus passes and overlooking an error on a bid that prompted an emergency contract for TransitPLUS service.
Grant will be succeeded by deputy manager Mike Giugno.
The Milwaukee Transit Riders Union is looking forward to new leadership of the bus system and optimistic as to what this will mean for Milwaukee bus riders.
