Thanks to Keith Parker and this team, research by Transit Center shows that MARTA is poised to see a major increase in ridership due to their continued investment in TODs and technology advances.

This according to findings by Transit Center, a foundation that works to improve urban mobility and has created a report outlining many of the factors that encourage people to take transit.

While some of the concepts are rather obvious like "developing transit in walkable areas and offering frequent, fast bus and rail service are the key drivers of increasing urban transit ridership," the report does take notice of (and hopefully validates, in a way) the construction of an array of transit-oriented developments popping up at stations across the MARTA system.
