Construction & Service Impacts  

Better Breeze fare equipment is being installed in phases systemwide to maintain access to all stations. During construction:

  • Rail and bus service is unchanged.   
  • New fare gates will close May 2, 2026, and fare will be required. Click here for ways to pay. 
  • Installation of new fare equipment will continue after May 2, so please look for signs and MARTA transit ambassadors if you need assistance navigating the system or paying your fare.
  • At stations where construction is ongoing and old fare gates remain; gates will be left open. Open gates or emergency doors do not mean a free ride. Customers must be prepared to pay their fare with a new Breeze card or ticket, virtual Breeze card, credit or debit card, or mobile wallet. Old Breeze cards and the old Breeze Mobile 2.0 app WILL NOT work on the new Breeze system.
