SR-76 at Gird Road (lower view) Live Traffic Cam, Fallbrook

Highway 76 at Gird Road is the scene on this live traffic camera in Fallbrook, part of San Diego County, California, with the camera looking at westbound traffic. Caltrans runs more than one camera here; this page carries the lower view.

State Route 76 runs inland from Oceanside along the San Luis Rey River valley through Bonsall and Fallbrook to Pala, Pauma Valley and Lake Henshaw. Highway 76 is a main east–west route through North County San Diego, linking the coast with I-15 and the inland valleys. Fallbrook is the Avocado Capital of the World, a rural town surrounded by groves.

Weekend traffic often includes visitors heading to the inland valleys and Palomar Mountain. Commuters, casino visitors and farm traffic share the road, and congestion builds near I-15 and the Oceanside area. Weekend and holiday travel can turn a quiet country road busy, and the camera shows how things look right now.

At night, streams of headlights and taillights make it easy to see how fast traffic is moving. Images on this page come from Caltrans, the California Department of Transportation.
