VTA’s final contract offer to workers last week included a wage increase of 9% over three years, keeping the employees as the second-highest paid in the Bay Area and the fifth-highest paid in the country. The union is seeking a 6% raise per year over three years and wants to add a clause guaranteeing arbitration for contract disputes.

VTA sues ATU Local 265 to end strike, citing a "no strike" clause breach, while ongoing wage increase negotiations remain contentious.

Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority light rail and bus service is shut down Monday as more than 1,500 front line employees have gone on strike.

More than 1,500 transit workers walked off the job early Monday morning, marking the first work stoppage in VTA’s 30-year history.

For a second day in a row, many people in the South Bay will be forced to look for alternative transportation as VTA workers continue a strike that has no clear end in sight.

The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority has filed a legal complaint over the ongoing VTA workers' strike as the labor action entered its second day in the South Bay.

Both the transit agency and the union say they are open to returning to negotiations, but no meetings have been set.

The VTA operators’ union is responding after the transit agency went to court trying to get striking drivers back to work.
