News MARTA service on July 4
Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 5:00 PM
The July 4th weekend looks to be a hectic one in Atlanta. PRIDE is happening, so is a road race sponsored by the monolith-that-will-not-be-named, and the normally clogged streets of our one-horse town will be even worse.
MARTA plans to reroute some buses during the race and boost service for some of the events. Here are some details courtesy of the transit agency:
Peachtree Road Race7 a.m. - 11 a.m.
Start of Race: Buckhead or Lenox Rail Stations
End of Race: Civic Center Rail Station
4TH of July at Lenox Square
6 p.m. - 10 p.m.
