I-110 at Channel St off-ramp Live Traffic Cam, San Pedro

Before you merge onto I-110 near San Pedro, take a look at this live camera at Channel St off-ramp, facing southbound traffic. It is a handy way to check traffic, weather and road conditions before setting out.

Channel Street is near the end of the Harbor Freeway, close to the Port of Los Angeles. San Pedro is the harbour district of Los Angeles, home to the Port of Los Angeles, the Battleship Iowa museum and the green Vincent Thomas Bridge. The Port of Los Angeles and the neighbouring Port of Long Beach together form the busiest container port complex in the United States.

Slowdowns are common near the I-405 junction. Weekend traffic includes visitors heading to San Pedro, the Battleship Iowa and the Catalina Island ferries.

North of downtown, the route continues as the Arroyo Seco Parkway, which opened in 1940 and is considered the first freeway in the western United States. In the South Bay, the Harbor Freeway links the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro with Wilmington, Carson, Torrance and Gardena, before heading north toward downtown. This part of the Harbor Freeway carries large numbers of trucks loaded with containers from the ports.
