WSDOT Launches New Amtrak Cascades Website
This site went live July 15, 2014, addressing the growing number of train passengers who purchase tickets online and use mobile devices. WSDOT re-wrote content, re-organized the site structure, simplified the code, added new code, and updated the look and feel of the site.
The new website automatically changes the size of the page and the way the content is served up, based on the device accessing the page (including phones and tablets). Passengers are able to buy tickets online without having to switch to another site. The updated terminology coded into the pages allows the site to be found easier by web search engines, which means it pops up higher on potential customers’ web search results lists to encourage ticket sales. Visit the site.
