PSTA to Honor Retired Bus Driver 

Oakie O’Hara served the community for nearly 39 years 

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

January 25th, 2022 

 

 

St. Petersburg, FL – The Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) will honor a recently retired bus driver at its board meeting tomorrow, Wednesday January 26th. Oakie O’Hara  is being recognized for his nearly 39 years of service to the agency and the community.   



O’Hara had just celebrated his 20th birthday when he started his career in July of 1983. He retired on December 2nd, 2021. 



“Oakie has dedicated so much of his life and time to PSTA, and we thank him for that,” said CEO Brad Miller. “He has safely transported thousands of people over the years. We want Oakie and the community to know we appreciate his service, professionalism, and wish him the best as he drives off into retirement. You have earned it, Oakie.” 



O’Hara was also President of the Drivers’ Union for 7 years. But perhaps the greatest gift during his tenure at PSTA, his wife. O’Hara met his wife Liz on a PSTA bus. She eventually joined the agency as well. 



Tomorrow’s Board of Directors meeting is scheduled to begin at 9am at PSTA Headquarters (3201 Scherer Dr, St. Petersburg).
