US-101 at Pilgrimage Bridge Live Traffic Cam, Los Angeles
About this camera
This live Caltrans camera watches US-101 at the Pilgrimage Bridge in Los Angeles. The picture shows the northbound side of the highway. The Pilgrimage Bridge crosses the freeway in the Cahuenga Pass near the Ford Theatre and the Hollywood Bowl, so concert nights in summer bring heavy traffic around here.
US-101 links Southern California, the Central Coast, the Bay Area and the North Coast, and for long stretches it is the only practical north-south route near the ocean. Commuters, tourists, farm trucks and long-haul freight all share the same lanes.
Few freeways are as famous, or as congested, as US-101 in Los Angeles. It starts near downtown and Union Station, climbs past Hollywood and through the Cahuenga Pass, and then crosses the San Fernando Valley through North Hollywood, Studio City, Sherman Oaks and Encino.
Good times to check
- Weekday commute congestion
- Morning fog and marine layer
- Incidents and lane closures
- Weekend and holiday visitors
A quick look before you leave can tell you whether the lanes are moving freely or backed up. Thanks to Caltrans (the California Department of Transportation) for making this live view available.
