We are currently implementing our new state-of-the-art smart card fare collection system called Breeze.

Soon, our system will be 100% smart card, making us the first transit system in the nation – and among the first in the world – to achieve this milestone.

The rollout of Breeze is one of the most important efforts MARTA has ever undertaken. We’re making many changes to improve your MARTA experience – from new entry gates and vending machines to the way we conduct business.

Breeze is a sign of more good things to come. It is the first step in building a brand new MARTA – one you can be proud of and rely upon. In fact, we chose the name Breeze because that is what we want MARTA to be – easy as a breeze for you.

Installation of the Breeze system began in December 2005 and will take place throughout 2006. You have our commitment that we will do all we can to make the transition as smooth as possible for you. We hope that you will be willing to lend us your patience and support. You can also help by taking the time to learn about Breeze – and sharing that knowledge with your friends and family who use MARTA.

We are confident that once it is installed, you will agree Breeze is indeed a better way and a successful first step towards a better MARTA.

Thank you for your patronage and your support of the MARTA system.
