I'm from Mexico City, and everytime I go to Atlanta, I just take Marta from airport to Chamblee. Walk 10 minutes, and I'm in my friend's house.? If they go to pick me up at the aiport, they will make 1 hour from Chamblee to airport, and 1 hour back. That means 2 hours VS. 30 minutes.

I? remember when I used to use the gold tokens instead of a card.

No, it's not. It's just increasing the fares. I think it's $2.00 for one? trip.

is marta? really going away because of budget cuts??? cuz i'm planning on taking it next summer to go to ga state univserity. If it's not then can someone tell me how to use it? i'v only seen it in the movies where people put coins in the machine, or do theey use tickets now?? how does it all work?

I drive, but if I lived in downtown Atlanta then I would more then? likely do the marta.

Yes, I finally agree and what you've mentioned that my frustration with? Marta as well

This video makes 2002 look like 1985... So ancient? lol!

you also have to look into the cause of the budget problems. Your state as well as neighboring counties who's residents use the system don't want to pay for it. The original planned Expansion projects to hapevile, the atlantic? station, and emory university have never became final with Marta's board of directors. But in the near future (not specified when) they may be LRTs or BRTs.

this? real old then

Marta is not as bad as people make it out to be, yes marta made some cuts and are going up on the weeky, and 30 day passes but? thats because the state of Georgia dose not help out with money that marta needs. I have been to other big cities and trust me marta is better than most.

MARTA IS NOW RAISING FARES AND CUTTING SERVICE!!!! I WOULD OF NEVER MOVED TO ATLANTA IF I KNEW MARTA WAS SO TACKY. I HAVE TO BE AT WORK AT A CERTAIN TIME. THEY SERVICE WAS BAD ENOUGH AS IT WAS NOW THEY SAYING THEY'RE GOING TO RAISE FARES ON TOP? OF THAT? MARTA IS BAD. B. I WISH I NEVER MOVED TO ATLANTA.

Does anyone know if MARTA is planning on adding additional transit lines to the system in the future? And if so, what? is the construction time frame? I would love to see more lines for MARTA!

My favorite marta train ever. Classic CQ311. That was the final year of? that,lol.

I am very glad to see this said by someone. I myself have been wondering about relocating to the Atlanta area, and due to a disability, cannot have a drivers license. Maybe? living around there or at least kind of close to the DT area there would not matter that I didn't drive? Public transit does indeed make good economical and environmental sense to me too.

The Marta is Atlanta's? taxi.

2:44 zomgs? plane

As long as you are inside of I-285, the rail system is pretty effective...espeically during rush hour. but the rail really needs to be expanded considerably outside of I-285, but Cobb, Gwinnette and Clayton counties fought tooth and nail to keep MARTA out...started their own? county-based bus systems. Yet those same county residents complain about he traffic. we have some odd social politics in this city. Other than that Atlanta's great. Dragon*Con rocks.

That comment from Trainzcool is so right.? Public transportation can and should be a GOOD thing. Other countries have figured it out.
