FART is a reliable, fast, and user-friendly website for viewing real-time bus and tram departures and arrivals in the Karlsruhe area. It was created out of frustration with the existing official displays, which are often slow, unreliable, occasionally show incorrect data, or are completely absent at less-frequented stops.
This project is an independent, unofficial service built with stability and accuracy in mind. The website is actively monitored with checks running every minute to ensure maximum reliability. I strive to achieve the highest possible uptime for our users.
Live Website: fart.somethings.dev
- Station Search: Find any bus or tram station within the KVV network area.

I take reliability seriously. The service is monitored with checks running every minute from multiple locations. The uptime badge at the top of this page shows the 30-day availability history. I continuously work to maintain the highest possible uptime for our users.
