The new website is coded in ASP.NET 2.0, and the front page uses several live XML feeds to provide visitors with up-to-date traffic news, weather and live traffic webcams. As a matter of course, the website is also available in a no-images version for accessibility reasons, but additionally, any page can be translated in seconds into French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian and even Japanese! We will soon be adding streaming media content and more interactive features and the website will continue to change and improve in the coming |
