MARTA On the Go

Atlanta transit information in one place

MARTA On the Go is a Maps & Navigation app for people using the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority network. It brings MARTA bus and rail schedules together with nearby stop information, helping regular commuters, occasional riders, and visitors plan trips around Atlanta without switching between separate transit sources.

Useful for checking the next connection

The app includes real-time bus tracking, so riders can check vehicle locations and estimated arrivals rather than relying only on a printed or static timetable. It also provides route schedules for longer-range planning and can use location information to identify nearby MARTA stops. That combination suits quick checks before leaving, as well as planning a journey across the wider transit network.

• Live bus information: Check reported vehicle positions and arrival estimates.
• Bus and rail schedules: Review MARTA timetable information in one app.
• Nearby stops: Find transit points close to your current location.
• Agency updates: Access service information from MARTA’s official app channel.

A practical tool with a mixed reception

MARTA On the Go is built around utility rather than presentation. Its straightforward approach can make a routine schedule check quick, although the interface may feel less polished than broader navigation platforms. Real-time estimates are useful but should still be treated as guidance, since reported data can sometimes lag behind a vehicle’s actual position.

Track record

With 500,000+ installs, the app has remained relevant to a substantial group of MARTA riders. Its current rating is 2.98 out of 5 from 4,945 ratings, suggesting that dependable transit information is valuable while the day-to-day experience is not consistent for everyone.
