After years of bloodletting and ALL-OUT WAR, the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority and MARTA are laying down their weapons and working together for a brighter transit future.
Starting Aug. 5, GRTA's Xpress coach buses will accept MARTA Regional Breeze Cards. (The agency says that if you want the free transfer from the city's bus or rail system to the GRTA coaches, you'll need to have that card or the paper Breeze ticket.)
