Project Overview
MARTA is renovating Garnett Station as part of its State-of-Good-Repair Program. Garnett Station opened in 1981, and, after more than 40 years of wear and tear, existing pavers were in immediate need of repair to ensure a safe, accessible, and positive experience for customers. New pavers are also easier to clean, replace, and maintain long-term.
The total budget for Garnett Station Rehabilitation is $9.9 million. The six-week Skip Stop saved about 14 months of construction time and $5 million.
Image Description: This is an image of the lower concourse with new, gray pavers installed.
Key Project Features:
- Demolition and replacement of existing platform pavers including cracked and missing pavers
- Staircase repair
- Replacement of worn windscreens to improve the appearance and natural lighting on the platform
- Heavy cleaning, pressure-washing, sealing and graffiti-resistant coating applied to concrete areas
Future project work includes replacing the pavers on the concourse and plaza levels and new windscreens. Stay tuned for more updates.
Image Description: The image above shows old and new platform pavers side-by-side. Old, damaged blue pavers are on the left. New, modern pavers that are smoother and easier to clean are on the right.
