The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) last week announced it is investing about $225 million in state-of-good-repair work on its heavy rail lines that will enhance the safety of the rail system and reduce train delays.
As part of the work, crews will replace heavy rail between Lindbergh Center, Buckhead and Lenox stations on the Red and Gold Lines beginning Feb. 16. The project will require suspension of rail service between the stations until Feb. 22, MARTA officials said in a press release.
The track replacement project is a federally required, multiyear effort that involves replacing track and switches throughout the rail system.
