Open our Transit Event Calendar

The Atlanta region has been diagnosed with a bad case of urban sprawl and traffic congestion by urban planners and transportation experts. Our region needs better public transportation to become more accessible, equitable, and competitive. Metro Atlanta's fragmented governmental institutions still lack the support to build the transit system we need. The initiative for world class transit system must come from citizens. Together, we can show that the Atlanta Region is ready for a world class transit system.

OUR MISSION

We empower local residents throughout the Atlanta Region to improve the transit ridership experience in their own neighborhoods. The MARTA Army is an independent grassroots action group, committed to enhancing the ridership experience on public transit here in Metro Atlanta. We are a completely crowd-funded organization, and your generous donations help us improve our public transit every day. We use the collected funds to run MARTA Army Operations across Atlanta. These operations improve the condition of transit in Atlanta in small but significant and visible ways.
