Redesigned Metra Homepage
It was remiss of me to let last week pass without posting about the newly revamped Metra web site. Beneath the considerable cosmetic update lie a couple of important new features for riders.
First, anyone can now purchase passes and 10-ride cards online, without having to go through an application process.
Second, Metra has introduced ‘My Metra,’ an easy way for accountholders to manage ticket purchases and track news about their preferred routes, trains, and stops. For example, if you always take the 8:07 train from Western Avenue to your job in Schaumburg, you can sign up for notifications about delays and other events that may impact your commute.
Welcome changes, all.
