Transit

For periodic trips, transit can be a fast and inexpensive alternative for a large portion of the route. And, if you can use it for part or all of your daily commute, transit can save money in vehicle operating costs, parking fees and tolls.

Daily transit riders can save a substantial amount of money: For example, a monthly MARTA TransCard is only $52.50, compared to the $330* it costs to drive alone. Transit can be even less expensive if your employer or property manager offers passes through a discount program. Tax benefits may also be available for both employers and employees.

Transit Systems

There are five main transit systems in the metro Atlanta area, currently serving 12 counties.

Dozens of other counties across the state provide public transit services as well.
