Abstract:
The Jacqueline Bacharach Office records document late twentieth century Los Angeles transit history. By the early 1980's it became clear that the division of power and responsibilities between the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission (LACTC), local transit agencies such as the Southern California Rapid Transit District (SCRTD), and local government bodies was proving to be an obstacle to the rational and efficient development of a countywide mass transit system. The reports and office correspondence in this collection illustrate how these problems and their solutions were being formulated and developed by the LACTC. Also at this time, the LACTC and its sister transit agencies were preparing to re-introduce rail lines as part of the mass transit system of Los Angeles County. Samples of the reports and studies generated at the early stages of these projects are represented here. Detailed descriptions of series and folders is contained in the Arrangement and Description section of this finding aid.
