    MARTA Virtual Public Meetings for Track Replacement Project.

    MARTA is advancing its commitment to enhancing the existing system and improving transit service as part of the "MARTA 2040" program. Over the next two decades, MARTA will work to increase connectivity, accessibility, and mobility across the region by performing several projects of varying sizes and impacts. 

    Upcoming Major MARTA Service Impacts:

    Next month, MARTA will continue its Track Replacement Phase IV (TR-IV) program with a major effort that will temporarily suspend rail service between Buckhead, Lenox, and Lindbergh Center stations and create significant service delays for some customers. Beginning February 16 at 9 p.m., through February 22 at 4 a.m., MARTA's rail customers traveling through the affected stations will experience up to 30-minute service delays due to the track replacement effort. 

    To maintain connectivity, MARTA customers will be provided a convenient option to continue their trip at no additional cost during general service hours with continuous bus shuttle service from Buckhead, Lenox, and Lindbergh Center rail stations. Two virtual public meetings have also been scheduled to allow customers an opportunity to learn more about the TR-IV program, obtain details on the upcoming impacts, and have questions answered by MARTA officials.
