METRO Web Site Now in Spanish

If you have Spanish-speaking friends, pass the word: The Spanish version of RideMetro.org is up and running.
It was under construction for the past few months, while we updated the pages to this new system with a new vendor.
Simply click on En Español and it will take you to that exact page in Spanish. Techies call it "context sensitive page switching."
For users, it means the same page in Spanish pops up, rather than directing you to a Spanish-language home page, where you then have to navigate to the page you were on in English.
"Translations.com is one of the few companies that can actually provide the translations the way we have set it up. They have real people translating the site. They can customize their turnaround time to what we need," said Jesse Quintanilla, METRO's Web designer.
