Atlanta Forward: Transportation

Today’s moderator: Tom Sabulis

A 20-year veteran of the AJC, Tom Sabulis has covered news, politics and the arts during a career that has taken him to newspapers across the country. Since 2008, he has coordinated many of the newspaper’s pro/con debates and first-person guest columns.

MARTA has a new board chairman to go along with its still relatively new GM/CEO, Keith Parker, who has been on the job for a year now. Robert Ashe, an Atlanta native, today writes about the transit agency's determination to make train and bus commuting a more viable and attractive option for residents. In our second column, North Fulton leader Brandon Beach, a state senator, writes about the new regional transit website that will help coordinate services of MARTA, GRTA and the Cobb and Gwinnett bus lines.
