About this camera
This roadside camera keeps an eye on State Route 52 at the SR-125 interchange in Santee, California, pointed at the eastbound lanes, giving a real-time picture of how traffic is moving.
State Route 52 runs east–west across San Diego, from I-5 near La Jolla through Clairemont and Kearny Mesa to Santee. SR-52 passes along the north edge of Mission Trails Regional Park, one of the largest urban parks in the country, and links the coast with the East County. Santee is an East County suburb of San Diego, along the San Diego River.

Use the camera to gauge the evening rush, check on a family member's commute, or simply see how busy the freeway is right now.
Images may look grainy at night or during heavy rain, but the flow of lights still tells the story. This view is streamed by Caltrans (California Department of Transportation).
