Polls are open today until 7pm to vote for expanding MARTA into Gwinnett.
MARTA’s Board of Directors and Gwinnett’s county commission have approved a historic contract that would allow it to take over and expand transit services — including building a new heavy rail line — in Gwinnett County. Gwinnett County has now cleared two big hurdles on its once-unthinkable trek toward joining MARTA. It’s got one more to go.
A contract to take over and greatly expand transit services in Gwinnett, Georgia’s second largest county, was approved Thursday by MARTA’s Board of Directors. The agreement, which has already been approved by Gwinnett’s leadership, would pave the way for billions of dollars to be collected and spent on extending transit into the increasingly dense and diverse community.
