MARTA trains moved 175,000 people this weekend to major events like the Atlanta Falcons or Atlanta United games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and the sold-out Billie Eilish concert at State Farm Arena. For comparison, MARTA rail ridership on weekends without major events is around 100,000. Thanks for riding, everyone!
