Marietta Transportation

Interstate 75 runs north and south through the city, and the original Dixie Highway (now known as U.S. 41 or Cobb Parkway), makes getting around Marietta easy. In addition, Interstate 85 is only 15 miles to the east and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is only 30 minutes to the south.
Driving in Marietta:
Roads are very well marked and generally in excellent condition, and parking is plentiful, so driving is usually the best transportation option. Please note that rush hour traffic typically occurs on weekday mornings from 7:00am to 9:00am and on weekday afternoons from 4:00pm to 6:30pm.

Marietta Taxis:
It would be considered a very rare occurance if you were able to walk outside and flag a taxi, so if you plan to use this mode of transportation you will need to schedule one in advance or call and be prepared to wait for between 5 and 30 minutes. There are many taxi companies to choose from in Marietta. Depending on where you are going, you may have a flat rate or a variable rate based on mileage and time.
