MARTA mourns the loss of our colleague and friend Heather Alhadeff

MARTA mourns the loss of our colleague and friend Heather Alhadeff. As Assistant General Manager of Planning, Heather found the perfect match for her skills and interests and was instrumental in advancing transit projects that will define this region for decades. Heather was a fierce and principled advocate, whose professional and personal passions intertwined, and she devoted her career to advancing equitable mobility in the region. She also walked the talk, living car-free and taking MARTA or bicycling everywhere.

A native Atlantan, Heather was a founding member of Atlanta United Soccer and loved playing soccer herself, as well as riding her bike on the Beltline, where a bench will be placed in her memory. 

We send our deepest condolences to her husband and son, parents and family, and the countless friends who loved her.
