While weekend service might be improved, still have to wait 10-15 min for transfers at 5pts and that’s the real killer. I’ve seen 3 WB trains come thru and no EB 😔

Someone in the city of Atlanta please create an AI bot that improves the permitting process so that we aren’t wasting Marta board meeting time documenting an exhaustive timeline of what’s been done and what hasn’t been done. Build the trains and automate this stuff. It’s so silly how archaic this is

Atlanta narrowed three blocks of Peachtree Street in 2021 and installed a crosswalk. Then after opposition, the city converted the road back - partly: The crosswalk wasn’t removed, just left it to fade. Last month, a man was hit by a car in the crosswalk and killed. www.ajc.com/news/health-...
Pedestrian death at Peachtree Center renews crosswalk safety debate
Merchant killed by car at faded crosswalk after previous road safety measures were reversed.

EXCLUSIVE from @thexylom.com: the first of many MARTA Stadler CQ400 trainsets has arrived at College Park's South Yard.
The new electric, open gangway trains are projected to take millions of Atlantans off the highway and contribute to city climate targets

The NB Doraville spacing of these trains is a daily problem. It’s so inconsistent that it becomes unreliable.

Make ur voice be heard abt the Bus Network Redesign. Added comments there's no bus service to Krog or Lee+White. I go to these places often and the current conditions are rolling 1mi from a train stop on bad sidewalks, in the rain etc. Please elevate this comment www.surveymonkey.com/r/MARTANextG...
