MARTAConnect on Election Day

Utilization of the program described below is not a gift, offer of a gift, or only for those involved in the act of voting for a particular candidate.

We’re teaming up with Uber to make polling locations accessible. On Tuesday, January 5, 2021 MARTAConnect will provide subsidized Uber transportation to polling precincts not served by MARTA due to the reduced number of bus routes as a result of COVID-19.

If a precinct is one of the 99 polling locations impacted, you can download a $16 Uber subsidy ($8 per trip) on the Uber app to facilitate a trip to and from the polling location. 

Eligible Polling Locations for MARTAConnect Uber trips: list and map.

The subsidy works only for polling locations not covered by the Essential Service Plan and is intended as a substitute for reduced MARTA service. You are responsible for any amount over $8 and will not receive a credit for any trip less than $8. 

MARTAConnect for Election Day is available now but cannot be used until Tuesday, January 5 from 5 am until midnight.

Download the subsidy here.  The November election subsidy has expired, please download the subsidy again.
