THE "BUC" STOPS THERE. GO ON AND TAKE A FREE RIDE!

The "Buc" will stop in Buckhead starting in late November.

The newly selected name for the free shuttle bus service from MARTA's Buckhead and Lenox stations to major hotels, malls and office buildings was chosen for its simplicity, and because it's an acronym for Buckhead's Uptown Connection.

The service, to be operated by the Norcross branch of national bus company Coach USA, will use 10 compressed-natural-gas buses, each seating 22 passengers. It will operate Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Advocates hope it will cut traffic in Buckhead's business district.
