By Application No. 82-01-43 filed July 20, 1982, with the California
Public Utilities Commission, Greyhound Lines, Inc. requested approval to
increase its passenger bus fares and package express rates. The express rate
portion of the foregoing includes interline package express shipments that
travel jointly over Greyhound routes and the routes of the following carriers:
1. Las Vegas -Tonopah -Reno Stage Line, Inc.
(Truckee -Cal Neva via Tahoe City)
2. Orange Belt Stages (Barstow -Paso Robles, Fresno -Visalia
and Barstow)
3. Peerless Stages, Inc. (Oakland -Santa Cruz via San
Jose)
4. Vaca Valley Bus Lines, Inc. (Vacaville -Travis AFB
via Fairfield; Fairfield -Rio Vista via Suisum)
5. Desert Stage Lines (Cook's Charter Bus Service d/b/a/)
(Twenty -Nine Palms -Palm Springs)
6. Redwood Empire Lines, Inc. (Eureka -Redding Stages, Inc.
d/b/a) (Eureka -Redding)
Applicants estimate that an 8% increase in passenger and express rates
will be required to offset increased operating expenses and provide for a more
reasonable rate of return.
The portion of revenue generated by express transported over the
routes of the aforementioned carriers, resulting from this proposed increase, is
not significant as they participate only as connecting interline carriers.
This notice is provided by Greyhound Lines, Inc., pursuant to Rule 24
of the California Public Utilities Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures.
A copy of Application No. 82-07-43 is available upon request from:
`tr. R. L. Wilson, Vice President -Traffic. above address.
