Jammin' on MARTA

While I’m no stranger to public transportation (having commuted regularly in past years), there are too many commuters with the same idea. We’re all trying to beat the pinch of higher gas prices and Atlanta’s worsening commute times.

MARTA is really jammed. When you add a broken down train to the mix, it’s downright stressful. Why am I doing this again?!

On most trips, I had no place to relax and enjoy the ride, take in a book or even people watch. The packed MARTA trains were frustrating.

For my trip, the commute by MARTA only adds 10 extra minutes. But is it worth the hassle? The jury is still out ......
