Atlanta First News staff
Toasted to a respectable shade. No regrets, no crumbs left.
Summary
MARTA is replacing the glass in its new all-glass faregates after at least five documented instances of the panes shattering. The new faregates were part of MARTA's Better Breeze program and originally used two quarter-inch panes of glass placed together. Going forward, the agency will use a single half-inch pane of glass to prevent further breakage.
