MARTA
ENCOURAGES HOLIDAY TRAVELERS TO TAKE THE TRAIN TO THE PLANE
ATLANTA - The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority
(MARTA) provides direct rail service into Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta
International Airport and encourages travelers to avoid traffic and take MARTA
to the airport this holiday season.
As the airport works to renovate its south economy parking
lot, a reminder that MARTA has inexpensive, long-term parking at six rail
stations:
Dunwoody & Sandy Springs Stations - $5 per 24 hours
North Springs, Doraville, Lindbergh Center & College Park
Stations - $8 per 24 hours
Take either the Red or Gold Line southbound for direct access
into the airport.
See how easy it is to take the train to the
plane.
“We are one of only a few public transit systems in the world
that take you directly into an airport. You don’t have to worry about driving
or finding parking,” said MARTA General Manager and CEO Collie Greenwood.
“Begin your holiday trip with a safe, fast ride to the world’s busiest
airport.”
MARTA costs $2.50 for one-way and the easiest way to pay your
fare is to download Breeze Mobile 2.0
and pay as you go. You can also buy a Breeze ticket or reloadable Breeze card
at any rail station.
