The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) is a vital public transit system serving the metropolitan Atlanta area, offering bus, train, and streetcar services (“MARTA Service Standards FY23”). Since 2021, MARTA has embarked on a series of ambitious projects known as MARTA 2040 to enhance the efficiency and convenience of its public transportation services (“MARTA 2040”).

As part of MARTA 2040, Summerhill Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) started construction in the summer of 2023, building upon the initial utility work in 2022. In the summer of 2025, revenue service will be launched. Summerhill BRT is a 5-mile dedicated bus route which will establish a transit link, connecting Downtown Atlanta to the Capitol Gateway, Summerhill, Peoplestown, and the Atlanta BeltLine. Additionally, convenient connections to MARTA's heavy rail system will be available at Five Points, Georgia State, and Garnett stations (“Summerhill Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)”). In the pursuit of improving customer experience, MARTA envisions the deployment of digital signage at Summerhill BRT encompassing functions such as ticket vending, digital screens displaying service alerts, bus schedules, and route maps.
