Whether you need to find the fastest route to your office or to the closest shopping mall, Atlanta's roads can take you there. With options in mass transit, multiple highways and airports, you'll quickly learn the most effective ways to get around from your Atlanta temporary housing unit.

Public Transportation

Atlanta has a well established public transportation system, which services Atlanta temporary housing residents in Fulton and Dekalb counties. The MARTA system runs both bus and rail lines, which transport over 450,000 riders daily. Nearby Clayton, Gwinnett and Cobb counties also operate their own public buses, which service each immediate area. These bus systems include C-TRAN in Clayton, Gwinnett County Transit in Gwinnett and Cobb Community Transit in Cobb County.

Additionally, temporary housing residents in Atlanta can travel across state lines with other mass transit options. Amtrak connects Atlanta temporary housing residents to cities along the east coast on its Crescent line, while Greyhound offers inter-city and interstate bus lines.

Driving

The majority of Atlanta residents drive around town, which often leads to congestion on the roads. Atlanta is surrounded by a beltway known as the Perimeter (I-285). Many locals refer to locations as ITP (inside the Perimeter) or OTP (outside of the Perimeter). Take note of the following highways and byways as you drive around Atlanta from your temporary housing:

• I-20 - The West Expressway runs east and west across Atlanta
• I-75 - The Northwest Expressway runs through Atlanta towards Tennessee and Ohio to the north and Florida to the south.
• I-85 - Also known as the Northeast Expressway, this highway runs north and south, connecting Atlanta to the Carolinas and to Alabama. *Note: I-75 and I-85 merge in downtown Atlanta, creating the Downtown Connector, which typically has heavy traffic.
• I-285 - This highway serves as a beltway around Atlanta and is usually congested.

The Georgia Navigator, run by the Georgia Department of Transportation, provides up-to-the-minute traffic information on travel times, accidents and closures for residents.
