About the San Jose cameras

These are the official California Department of Transportation cameras within about 25 km of downtown San Jose. 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 San Jose

Roadze tracks 136 traffic cameras in and around San Jose, California — 27 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 US-101 (36), I-880 (24), SR-17 (17), I-280 (14), I-680 (14) and SR-85 (14). 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.
