Project Overview
MARTA is renovating Garnett Station as part of its Station Rehabilitation Program. Garnett Station opened in 1981, and, after more than 40 years of wear and tear, the station was in immediate need of repair to ensure a safe, accessible, and positive experience for customers.
One of the most notable project features was the replacement of old, worn, and cracked platform pavers.
The six-week Skip Stop for platform paver replacement in October 2025 saved about 14 months of construction time and $5 million.

Project Features:
- Demolition and replacement of existing platform pavers, including cracked and missing pavers. New pavers are easier to clean, replace, and maintain long-term.
- Staircase repair
- Replacement of worn windscreens on lower levels to improve the appearance and natural lighting on the platform
- Heavy cleaning, pressure-washing, sealing and graffiti-resistant coating applied to concrete areas
- Installation of new, back-lit MARTA signs to improve customer wayfinding
The Broad Street Plaza rennovation, a separate project, is still in progress. Station access will remain during construction. Improvements include new concrete sidewalks and landscaping. Stay tuned for more updates.
