If Riding MARTA in Atlanta... Bring Cash

It's one of the busiest weekends of the year in Atlanta and Atlanta's rail system, MARTA is recommending you bring cash.

If you plan on riding MARTA this Labor Day weekend bring cash, urges agency officials.

MARTA Breeze vending machines are experiencing delays systemwide, said MARTA spokeswoman Ashanti Allen, in a statement Sunday.

“Customers are encouraged to bring cash for entry until debit and credit card function is restored,” she said. MARTA is increasing staff at several locations to reduce any inconvenience and help customers avoid delay, she added.

“MARTA regrets this inconvenience to customers and is working diligently with Cubic - the Breeze system vendor - to correct this issue as quickly as possible,” Allen said.
