Agency website

Introduction

A transit agency's website is an important point of communication with passengers. The agency's website can be the first place that passengers seek out important information, such as route maps and fare information. Websites should be clear and easy to navigate. It is also important for websites to offer the option to increase text size and access translations in languages other than English.
