Accessibility
FOR CUSTOMERS NEEDING AN ELEVATOR:
There will be limited elevator access for rail transfers starting July 29. Elevators normally used for transfer between the Northbound and Eastbound Lines, and the Southbound and Westbound Lines go the Concourse Level of the rail station which will be closed during deconstruction, so these transfers will not be available at Five Points.
MARTA Mobility shuttle service will be provided between Peachtree Center Station and Georgia State Station for transfers, or customers may travel past Five Points and return in the opposite direction to use accessible elevators as detailed
below.
