College Park (MARTA station)
Encyclopedia
College Park is an at-grade Rail station on the Red
and Gold
lines of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority
(MARTA) rail system. This is the fourth busiest station in the MARTA system. It opened on June 18, 1988. An interesting feature of this station is that the platform is narrower at the north end and wider at the south end, presumably to allow room for the yard leads just south of the station. The narrowing of the platform is most apparent at the north end of the platform.
This station provides access to Downtown College Park, Federal Aviation Administration offices and Woodward Academy. It also provides bus service to Camp Creek Parkway, Camp Creek Marketplace, Georgia International Convention Center, Old National Highway, South Fulton Park & Ride, and Union Station Mall.
