Atlanta Rapid - In Transit - Brief Article

Railway Age, Feb, 2004

The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority can move forward with its $72.5 million fare-collection system contract awarded to Cubic Transportation Systems last October, according to a Fulton County, Ga., court ruling announced last month. A request by Thales e-Transactions for a permanent injunction against MARTA that would have required the transit authority to rebid the smartcard-based system contract was denied.

Thales claimed that MASTA did not follow proper procedures during the contract award process, "The proposals were fairly evaluated," the judge noted.
