Overview:
MARTA is upgrading the equipment at paid long-term parking facilities at 10 heavy rail stations. This will greatly improve customer experience by offering a more consistent and reliable process for payment. Parking rates will remain the same.
The newly integrated system will provide several improvements, including:
- New entry and exit gates
- Ticket dispensers
- Payment machines
- License-plate recognition cameras
Customers will now receive a ticket upon entering the deck and they should take the ticket with them after parking. Customers can pay their fees on foot before exiting by cash or credit/debit card at new kiosks located near the station entrances.
In the future, this system will be compatible with MARTA’s Automated Fare Collection 2.0 system, which means customers will be able to pay for parking and fares through a single MARTA app on their mobile device(s).
