Rail and Bus Safety

Rail Safety

  • Rail Car StationPlease do not enter the track or right-of-way areas because the rail lines carry fatally high voltages. Please stand back while trains approach. Attempt to board only after trains have come to a complete stop and riders have exited. Always take your seat promptly after boarding the train. Hold onto hand rails if you are standing.
  • If you are using headphones, keep the volume low so that you can hear surrounding noise. Bicyclists: please keep safety and other customers in mind when using the rail system. Keep your bike out of aisle and away from the doors.
  • Remember if you need help or want to report a crime, pick up the blue telephone located on all platforms and concourses. This phone connects you to the MARTA Police.
Bus Safety
  • Bus Operators are not allowed to board passengers once the bus has pulled away from the curb in a station or bus stop. Please try to be at bus stall/stop five minutes prior to scheduled time.
  • Collapsible or folding baby strollers are allowed on the bus, but must be folded while on board.
  • Please ring the bell in a timely manner before your stop to allow the Operator enough time to bring the bus to a safe stop.
  • Please remain behind the yellow line on the bus in order to give the Operator an unobstructed view.
  • Please refrain from speaking to the bus operator while bus is in motion.
  • Please allow other passengers to exit before entering.
  • Bicyclists: Bike racks are installed on the front of the buses.
