FROM AIRPORT
TO CAMPUS VIA MARTA
Atlanta’s public transportation
system, MARTA, has a rail station
inside of the airport. This service offers the quickest
and most inexpensive way to get to campus ($1.75). Trains leave approximately
every ten minutes.
MARTA’s rail system operates from 5:00 A.M. to
1:00 A.M.
Monday through Friday, and from
5:30 A.M. to 12:30 A.M. weekends and holidays.
All trains leaving the airport travel north toward Georgia
Tech. Disembark at the Midtown Station and follow signs to the Peachtree exit. Once outside, wait by the Tech Trolley sign for the bright yellow clearly labeled trolley that will take you to campus. Trolley schedules are posted here. Please note that they do not run on Sunday mornings.

FROM AIRPORT TO CAMPUS VIA TAXI
If you are carrying a lot of luggage, you may opt to take
a taxi. Taxis are located directly outside the baggage
claim area. The fare to Georgia Tech is roughly $30. The
ride will take twenty to forty minutes depending on traffic.
You will be traveling into the downtown area, so it is
best to avoid times between 6:00 A.M. -9:00 A.M.
