A new audit reveals (again) that the Maryland Transit Authority has done an awful job of controlling its costs. The MTA is supposed to bring in $.35 cents in fares for every $1 the agency spends (with state and federal funding covering the rest). The new audit shows that the agency has done little to reach that goal; not following purchasing policies, not preventing contractors from being overpaid, not taking measures to prevent equipment theft. These issues have cost MTA millions of dollars over the last few years. At least the buses are on time, right?
