511 - pretty cool traffic info!

Tried the new 511 traffic service cell phone line. Good information and quite up to date. I think they call it real time. You can get ferry schedules, traffic info on major highways etc.

I don't think so... it's a state of WA service. AFAIK - it's just airtime.

Confirmed: It's free except for airtime.

Glad you liked it. I'm going to be using it a lot!
