About the Modesto cameras
These are the official California Department of Transportation cameras within about 22 km of downtown Modesto. They are the same feeds the state publishes, gathered here so you can check the whole metro area at once instead of one camera at a time.

Driving in Modesto
Roadze tracks 30 traffic cameras in and around Modesto, California — 28 of them stream live video, the rest publish a fresh photo every few minutes. They belong to the California Department of Transportation and are the same feeds their own traffic operators watch.
Most of them sit on SR-99 (24), SR-132 (4) and SR-219 (2). If you only check one before heading out, make it the road you actually take.
Coastal fog and winter rain are the usual problems, plus wind through the passes. Wildfire smoke can close routes in late summer.
Cameras are public and free to watch — no account, no app. Each one shows what the road looks like right now, which is more useful than a traffic map when you want to know whether it is raining, whether the plows have been through, or whether that backup is an accident or just volume.
Every camera in Modesto was checked on September 2, 2026. 30 are listed as working. Roadze re-checks every camera daily against its transportation department, so a camera that goes dark disappears from this page instead of sitting here as a broken thumbnail.
