How much did Atlanta - MARTA Northeast-South (Gold) Line cost?
MARTA's Gold Line connects Doraville with Atlanta's airport through the city centre. The route grew in stages, and the Federal Transit Administration records the historic Northeast-South rail project as separate costs for guideway, stations, trains, systems and other capital work. Its as-built total is not an inflation-adjusted price for rebuilding today's service.
