About the Richmond cameras
These are the official Virginia Department of Transportation cameras within about 35 km of downtown Richmond. 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 Richmond
Roadze tracks 112 traffic cameras in and around Richmond, Virginia — 112 of them stream live video, the rest publish a fresh photo every few minutes. They belong to the Virginia Department of Transportation and are the same feeds their own traffic operators watch.
Most of them sit on I-95 (51), I-64 (23), US-1 (5), I-295 (5), US-360 (4) and US-301 (3). If you only check one before heading out, make it the road you actually take.
I-95 and I-64 share the same pavement through the middle of Richmond and split again at the Bryan Park interchange north of downtown. Traffic for Norfolk, for Washington and for Charlottesville is all in the same lanes until that point, so one incident on the shared stretch delays three different trips.
This is the stretch of I-95 that shuts the East Coast down when it snows: it is the main north-south route from Florida to Maine, there is no parallel interstate, and in January 2022 drivers spent the night in their cars north of here. I-295 loops east around the city and is the way around when the through lanes stop.
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 Richmond was checked on September 2, 2026. 112 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.
