This week’s Transportation Tuesday looks at park-and-ride lots in metro Atlanta. As a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategy, park-and-ride lots serve to increase access to transit options by allowing commuters to transfer from their vehicles to transit, vanpools, or carpools.
The circles in this map represent park and ride lots and increase in size based on the number of parking spaces. The locations with the most parking spaces are:
- MARTA Lindbergh Center Station in Atlanta (2,907 spaces)
- MARTA Indian Creek Station in Stone Mountain (2,350 spaces)
- MARTA North Springs Station in Sandy Springs (2,325 spaces)
Check out the interactive map below from Atlanta Regional Commission’s Open Data portal or visit the web map here: Transit Park and Ride Lots map. You can zoom in and click on the icons to find out details about a particular location, such as address and parking spaces.
