Green Line
Explore the MARTA green line map, stations, schedules, popular destinations and more.
The MARTA green line runs east and west through downtown Atlanta to stations that are primarily in residential areas. One of the unique features of the green line is that the trains only have two rail cars (versus the standard four) and has a varied schedule and route depending on time and day of the week.
On weekdays, trains travel the entire length of the green line pictured here, from Bankhead to Edgewood/Candler Park. On weekends, trains only travel east as far as the King Memorial MARTA station. And after 9 p.m. on any day of the week, green line trains only shuttle between the Ashby and Bankhead MARTA stations.
Stations
Bankhead* | Ashby* | Vine City | Dome | Five Points | Georgia State | King Memorial* | Inman Park* | Candler Park*
*Free daily parking
Note that the Bankhead MARTA station only has 11 parking spots and the Inman Park north parking lot is currently closed due to construction — as a result, a parking lot next to the King Memorial station and Oakland Cemetery is temporarily open.

Green line hours are approximately 4:45 a.m. to 1:15 a.m. on weekdays and 6 a.m. to 1:15 a.m. on weekends and holidays. Download the MARTA on the Go App for the next arriving trains in real-time, especially for weekend travel when ongoing track work frequently alters normal rail schedules. Typically trains are every 10 to 12 minutes on weekdays and slow to every 20 minutes after 8 p.m. and on weekends/holidays.
Tip: Plan your trip with Google Maps to view which train to board in order to arrive at your destination on time.
