Manjeet Ranu serves as the Chief of
Capital Programs, Expansion and Innovation for the Metropolitan Atlanta
Rapid Transit Authority, also known as MARTA. This division is
responsible for planning, developing, designing and delivering projects to both
expand transit services to meet the growing needs of MARTA's service area and
to continuously keep MARTA's infrastructure in a state of good repair to
improve reliability and safety. This is notable among major transit
agencies in the United States, having significant programs focused on both
expansion and state of good repair. The division also strives to be
agile, to meet the changing needs of those it serves today and tomorrow,
innovatively. Like all of MARTA, this division works collaboratively with
its many community, local, state and federal partners to fulfill MARTA's
vision, mission and priorities.
Mr. Ranu has more than 20
years of progressively responsible public and private sector experience in
six states, including with Los Angeles Metro and the Utah Transit
Authority. With those major transit agencies, he provided leadership and
management for similar programs. In addition to being a
transportation professional, he is a land use planner, environmental planner
and urban designer.
Mr. Ranu holds a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Political Science and Biology from the University of Colorado at
Boulder, and Master of Public Administration and Master of Urban and Regional
Planning degrees from the University of Colorado at Denver. He
is a member of the American Institute of Certified Planners and Urban Land
Institute, and completed the Eno Center for Transportation's Transit Senior
Executive program. Manjeet is an avid mountain biker and cyclist,
and a long-time user of transit.
The Division of Capital Programs, Expansion &
Innovation has developed a Project Snapshot Tool to provide information about
MARTA's Capital Improvement Program, which lays out MARTA's planned capital investments
over the next 10 years. The
tool provides a "snapshot" by focusing primarily on projects that
have funding in the current fiscal year. Click
