You can now see all transit in Seattle on one map, at the same time

Ever wanted to see every bus, ferry, street car and light rail line operating in Seattle and throughout the greater Puget Sound region on one map at the same time?

Kona Farry, a junior at the University of Washington originally from Marysville, did -- so he did something about it.

"It occurred to me that with all of the public data available, I could use that to create a website that shows it all at once," Farry said over the phone Monday.

He first got the idea at the end of December, he said. Nearly three months and about 100 hours of work later, his Puget Sound Transit Operations Tracker launched to the public on Monday.

"As someone who likes transit and maps and everything, I had to go for it," he said. "This was just for me, it was a for-fun thing. I got the idea in my head and had to go for it. If anything, it was a distraction from class this quarter."
