Orange County Transportation Authority redesigns Web site
New look offers improved navigation, online tools.
The Orange County Transportation Authority launched a redesign of its Web site in order to make online
navigation easier for the business travelers, commuters and drivers who
frequently use the system.
OCTA added new tools on its Bus
section, which generates more than 80 percent of hits on the site. An interactive map is among the new options, and users can plan trips around cities, parks
and Metrolink stations by downloading routes. There is also an option
to create a personalized eBusbook with bus and train systems that visitors to the site frequent the most.
The Train section of the site offers a Things to Do calendar, filled with
special events near different stations, as well as an Interactive Fun
Guide that offers dining, entertainment and shopping options.
Among
the other features: the Share the Ride area allows users to
select commute distance, and it offers tips about the amount of calories
burned by walking or biking. Savings can also be added up with the
Carbon Cost Calculator.
The OCTA's mission is to enhance the
quality of life in the region by delivering safer, faster and more
efficient mobility solutions.
