William Millar (APTA)

William Henry Millar born August 7, 1954 is the former President of the American Public Transportation Association. From October 1, 1984[1] until October 31, 1996 he was the CEO of the Port Authority of Allegheny County serving the Pittsburgh metro area.[2] One of his chief deputies during this time was another Transit scholar Paul Skoutelas. In the spring of 1992 he dealt with a crippling 28-day work stoppage strike that was only resolved by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court while an agreement wasn't reached until 8 months later, a crisis in which Mr. Millar was burned in effigy by striking workers.[3]
