SR-99 at Griffith Rd RWIS Live Traffic Cam, Turlock

About this camera

The view from this roadside camera covers SR-99 at the Griffith Road road-weather station, in Turlock, Merced County. You are looking at the southbound lanes. This location has a Road Weather Information System station, which helps Caltrans track fog, wind and pavement conditions in real time.

The Modesto area is one of the largest metro areas in the Central Valley, and SR-99 is its backbone. Almond orchards, dairies and food processors surround the cities, and the freeway carries everything from school traffic to tanker trucks full of milk.

Traffic on SR-99 never really stops. Big rigs run day and night, and morning and evening commutes slow things around the larger cities. In winter, dense tule fog can settle over the valley floor and cut visibility sharply, while in summer the heat can be intense. Use it to see real conditions instead of guessing, whether you are commuting, hauling freight or starting a road trip.

The live images are provided by Caltrans (the California Department of Transportation).
