Atlanta, the Gateway to the South, has always been known as a transportation hub. Atlanta sprang from a railroad terminus and now has the one of the nation’s busiest airports, which also serves as an international gateway. From the runway to the railway to the freeway, Atlanta is a model of accessibility. Once in town, the MARTA bus and rail system provides hassle-free service to and from the airport and allows riders to easily move north-south, east-west through Atlanta’s unique neighborhoods.
