Georgia

The cost of riding MARTA will increase from $2 to $2.50, the transit system’s board decided Wednesday.

I have consistently and firmly advocated for the removal of the GA 400 tolls. I recently read many concerning news articles about suspending the tolls while millions are spent to upgrade the facilities. The postponement of the GA 400 toll for a few days or a week is a facade to fulfill a promise of removal, which is simply wrong and borders on offensive.

Now that the Atlanta Thrashers are headed for Winnipeg, does that mean fans won’t be able to enjoy a little hockey action close to home?
