Current Status

Construction nearing completion. Final bus stops will be installed in late Spring/early Summer 2025. 

Project Overview 

MARTA’s Regional Bus Stop Replacement Project replaces existing signage at MARTA’s 8,500+ bus stops and bus bays at rail stations and park/ride lots. The new signage is more accessible, informative, and reliable. The new signs are also being used by other transit systems in the region and can carry information for multiple systems at the same location. 

Project Features

The new, tiered sign system is highly adaptable and versatile, allowing MARTA to:

  • Display service information for up to 36 routes per sign 
  • Provide ties to transit apps like MARTA On the Go, ATL RIDES, and others 
  • Include any combination of regional transit operators 
  • Follow industry best practices for signage  

Each new stop includes: 

  • Universal bus symbol 
  • Service information including agency name, route number, route destination, route name/most travelled corridor 
  • A bus stop number in text and braille 
  • QR code to display scheduled departure times 
  • Customer service information  
  • MARTA’s website and phone number  
  • Operator Information indicating ends of line, time points, or other special instructions
