Los Angeles County Transportation Commission records 1976-1993

http://www.oac.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/kt1199q5nt

This collection documents the business activities of the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission (LACTC) from 1977 to 1993. Especially well documented are the agency's public relations efforts via the many publications (both internal and external) it issued. Also of interest is the documentation on the LACTC and SCRTD merger found in the Projects series. Most of the material is in paper format, although meeting minutes are also available digitally. Some documentary photos are also included.
