Combined Ridership (unlinked trips)
Definition: Unlinked trips are counted each time passengers board MARTA vehicles (for example, a passenger’s journey from the Airport station to the final destination may require two unlinked trips - taking a train to a station and then transferring to a bus to complete the one-way travel).
Performance (August 2025):
Combined Ridership for the month of August was 5.9 million unlinked passenger boardings, falling short of the forecast by 94,218.
