About the Sacramento cameras
These are the official California Department of Transportation cameras within about 35 km of downtown Sacramento. 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 Sacramento
Roadze tracks 159 traffic cameras in and around Sacramento, California — 154 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-50 (74), I-5 (29), I-80 (23), SR-99 (19), SR-51 (11) and SR-65 (3). If you only check one before heading out, make it the road you actually take.
US-50 carries more cameras here than any interstate, and it is the road to watch in winter: it runs east out of downtown and keeps climbing to South Lake Tahoe, so the ski traffic and the chain controls both live on it. SR-51, the Capital City Freeway, is the old Business 80 and is still signed both ways on different maps.
Two things close roads around Sacramento that do not show up on a traffic map. Tule fog settles over the Central Valley on still winter mornings and drops visibility to a few car lengths — it is the reason for the valley's multi-car pileups. And I-80 west of the city crosses the Yolo Causeway, a raised bridge over a floodplain that is meant to be under water in a wet winter.
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 Sacramento was checked on September 14, 2026. 159 are listed as working. Roadze re-checks every camera daily against its transportation department, so a camera that stops working is removed from this page.
