SR-76 at Via Monserate (lower view) Live Traffic Cam, Fallbrook

This roadside camera keeps an eye on SR-76 at Via Monserate in Fallbrook, California, with the camera looking at westbound traffic, giving a real-time picture of how traffic is moving. 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. On two-lane sections, a single slow truck or a crash can hold up traffic, so it pays to check ahead.

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).
