I signed up for Flexcar today after the car I own zonked out while I was out shopping. Happily I was near a MARTA station so I was able to take the train home...
Does everyone remember that week or so that MARTA had a trip planner on their website? It was sort of awesome. Anyway, I'm sure most here have seen Google...
It good to see that Google has opened the data format to the public. I wouldn't wait for MARTA to do it. By the time all the studies were complete on if they...
Apologies to those of you who are on the same network of forums as I am, who are receiving multiple copies of this same query. I'd like to get some input from...
I ran into problems taking pictures of the AT&T building downtown, which have a few nifty relief figures representing line workers on the building facade....
Larry: Morosgo is, in fact, a PUBLIC right-of-way down to the bus pull-in. People may legally take photos from a public right-of-way of anything visible from...
This is interesting timing... I've actually been working on an open-source transit trip planning software platform for the better part of two years now as a...
MARTA is a public space. How legitimate is their ban on photography? I understand the need to protect this "soft target" but at what cost? How effective is...
I too would be willing to pitch in some time formating data if we can get it from MARTA. I would assume in theory that MARTA has all the route and schedule...
If it were up to me, I would suspect that the easiest way to make this happen is to offer route schedules in XML format. That way, the data is more easily...
I agree that the photo policy is somewhat more restrictive than other systems, as Ive taken my own share of pictures on various systems as well. However MARTA...

I agree with you that changes in policy for photographing the insides of the station are probably best taken up with the MARTA board. A few years back I was...
I'd also like to clarify that my more caustic criticism of the policy isn't directed at the summary in the link below, but at the longer statement contained...
This sounds like a job for a Decatur-Avondale-East Lake (DAEL?) riders' union! Will you be the organizer? :-) Bradley Smith wrote: my solution is: if you are...
do you think we even have that many people in this group from those stations? no one else seems to think this scenario sounds good. i guess i should just start...
"MARTA has reached another important milestone in the conversion to its new smart-card based fare collection system. Beginning this week, Breeze Cards are...
I haven't received mine either. Hopefully they're sent out this week. The Breeze site originally said they'd be sent out in early September. I don't mind a...
Sorry if this has been brought up before, but it's as if MARTA is raising the prices - since to buy a round trip ticket now will cost an extra 50 cents if you...
I don't think that it has been brought up before. I also think that it is tantamount to a fare increase. MARTA really should have been more up front about this...
Here is my question: Why do we have fancy machines that can take debit/credit cards for payment yet we aren't utilizing it? Is there any plan to start...
Here is a response from a question I asked Marta about how the tokens and breeze tickets work: Dear Patron, Thanks for your inquiry. – -At a BVM* you may...
Does anyone else find the number of "down" Breeze gates at any given moment to be as APPALLING as I do? Every morning, at least one of the gates at my "home"...
I must agree. I see broken faregates everyday. I hope that the system is more robust than it appears, although honestly I am afraid that we went from one ...
... I just heard about an additional charge for MARTA riders without Breeze cards. You make many excellent points and your concerns are very thoughtful Yet I ...
A series of Community Open House Workshops have been scheduled for the Atlanta Region Bicycle Transportation and Pedestrian Walkways Plan update! These...
