Traffic Between Midtown and Hapeville (Atlanta: live, bus, airport)

[ladylibrarian]

I applied for a job in Hapeville from out of state. Can anyone tell me what my driving commute time would be like or my MARTA commute time if I lived in Midtown and worked in Hapeville (by Hartsfield Intenational Airport)?

If you lived in Midtown and worked near the airport you could take MARTA to the airport and potentially take a bus from there. Where, exactly, will you be working?

I'd be working on King Arnold St. I think the bus is 95.

Riding Marta to the Airport form Midtown then getting on a bus would not be very feasible and would probably take 1 hour door to door(Unless your employer has a employee shuttle from the Airport Marta Station (Delta/Airtran/Companies based out of the Airport I would imagine should have the means) when driving from Midtown to Hapeville would take 15-20 minutes.

Midtown to Hapeville traffic isn't bad since you will be going to opposite way of heavy traffic i.e. REVERSE COMMUTE (Lucky You). So it's a grea idea...Go for it!

BTW...There is a proposed Marta Line/Atlanta Airport Train Line to Hapeville with the new Airport Terminal being proposed which is about 4-5 years out so later on down the line you might be in luck.

Yeah, I'd say to drive it. Use MARTA when your car is broke! Your commute shouldn't be bad.
