The City of Atlanta will suspend streetcar service parts of Sunday and Monday to accommodate preparations for the College Football Championship.

The streetcar will suspend service from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday and noon to 11 p.m. Monday because of street closures on Centennial Olympic Park Drive, Andrew Young International Boulevard and Luckie Street. Signs will be posted at each of the 12 streetcar stations to alert passengers to the change in schedule. The streetcar will resume normal operating hours at 6 a.m. Tuesday.
