The VTA workers strike in Santa Clara County entered its second day Tuesday with some 1,500 workers on the picket lines demanding increased wages and improved benefits from the transit agency.The labor action has put the brakes on light rail and bus service throughout the South Bay.

Amalgamated Transit Union Local 265 and its 1500 VTA members went on strike Monday, saying they couldn’t come to an agreement with VTA.

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.
