India, June 5 -- U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy has directed the Federal Transit Administration to launch an investigation of Atlanta's Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, or MARTA. The investigation will review the transit agency's security spending, safety protocols, and risks to riders and workers.

The probe comes on the heels of two attacks in broad daylight on MARTA property in a week's time last month.
