SR-57 at SR-90 (Imperial Highway) interchange Live Cam, Fullerton

Live from Fullerton in Orange County, this camera shows SR-57 at the SR-90 (Imperial Highway) interchange, with the camera looking at northbound traffic.

State Route 57, the Orange Freeway, runs north from the Orange Crush interchange in the city of Orange through Anaheim, Fullerton and Brea, then over the hills to Diamond Bar, Pomona and I-210. Between Brea and Diamond Bar, SR-57 crosses the Puente Hills, which separate Orange County from Los Angeles County. Fullerton is home to Cal State Fullerton and a historic downtown with a busy train station.

Incidents at the Orange Crush can cause long backups. Commuter traffic is heavy in both directions, and the climb through Brea Canyon is a well-known bottleneck. A quick look before you leave can help you decide whether to take another route or wait out the worst of the rush.

At night, streams of headlights and taillights make it easy to see how fast traffic is moving. Camera feed courtesy of Caltrans, the California Department of Transportation.
