The Aviation Blvd park-ride lot (off I-75) is served by a bus that also goes to the Farmer's Market (I believe it is route 350 but I only took it once during the occupation this summer and may be wrong). The additional charge for the out-of-area route is now $.75 in addition to the normal fair or MARTA card. The extra $1.50/day adds up fast. There is also bus service to the area around Fort Gillem in Forest Park (I don't know the specifics of this route). Just because two bus routes do run in Clayton County; however, it does not make it convenient for all Clayton County residents to use MARTA. During the Olympic occupation I ended up driving to the College Park train station. This drive was almost equal to my normal commute time from Morrow and then I had to add the MARTA ride and walk from N.Avenue station. Alan
