NYC Transit Union Moves to Return to Work

AP - 27 minutes ago

NEW YORK - Transit union leaders agreed that the city's subway and bus

strike should end while talks resume, a mediator said Thursday in an

announcement that brought hope to a city paralyzed by the three-day

walkout. The deal with the Transit Workers Union could pave the way

for a resumption in service by Friday, if the union's executive board

gives the final OK. The strike, the system's first in 25 years, halted

service for millions and wreaked havoc on the city economy in the week

before Christmas.
