Bayern Traffic Cameras: Live Monitoring for Germany's Largest State
Access 4,000+ live traffic cameras across the Free State of Bavaria. From the high-volume Munich orbital (A99) and the vital A8 and A9 autobahns to the scenic passes of the Bavarian Alps, monitor road conditions in real-time 24/7.
VIEW BAYERN MAP →Bavaria (Bayern) is a critical junction for European transit, serving as the primary gateway between Northern Europe and the Alpine regions of Austria and Italy. For commuters in Munich's metropolitan area and travelers navigating the state's 1,400 kilometers of high-speed autobahns, real-time visual data is essential for avoiding the region's frequent holiday bottlenecks and winter weather delays.
TrafficVision provides a unified platform to access feeds from BayernInfo and the Autobahn GmbH des Bundes (Niederlassung Südbayern). Whether you're checking for construction on the A3 near Nuremberg or looking for snow on the A8 heading toward Salzburg, our platform delivers instant insight.
Munich & Upper Bavaria
Monitor the capital's busy A99 ring road and the major arteries feeding into the city center. Essential for navigating Germany's 5th most congested urban area.
Franconia & Nuremberg
Track conditions around the Nuremberg interchange (Kreuz Nürnberg), one of the busiest junctions in Europe, connecting the A3, A6, and A9.
The Alpine Corridors
View cameras along the A8 and A93 leading to the Austrian border. Monitor holiday travel flows and winter road clearance in real-time, including the primary access routes to Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Swabia & Lower Bavaria
Monitor the A7, Germany's longest autobahn, as it crosses through the western part of the state, as well as the A92 connecting Munich with Passau.
The Backbone of Bavarian Transit
The Bavarian road network is one of the most heavily utilized in the world. The Autobahn GmbH manages a vast infrastructure in Southern Bavaria alone that includes 2,063 bridges and 19 tunnels, ensuring that these international corridors remain operational year-round (Source: autobahn.de).
Among the state's highways, the A99 Munich orbital is a known hotspot. It frequently ranks as the most congested stretch of highway per 100 kilometers in Germany (Source: ADAC). Meanwhile, the A8 and A9 serve as vital north-south links that bear the brunt of both daily commerce and massive seasonal tourist migrations.
Regional Depth
Extensive coverage across all seven Bavarian administrative regions (Regierungsbezirke).
Alpine Awareness
Real-time views of mountain pass conditions and winter tire requirement zones.
Holiday Monitoring
Visual updates during the peak "Reisewelle" (travel waves) of the summer and autumn holidays.
Grid Scanning
Use our Grid View to monitor multiple points along the A99 ring road simultaneously.
Navigating Munich's Metropolitan Traffic
Munich consistently ranks as a challenging environment for drivers. In 2025, the TomTom Traffic Index reported that Munich drivers lost an average of 57 hours annually to traffic congestion, with an overall congestion level of 43.7% (Source: TomTom/INRIX). These delays are often exacerbated by the state's roughly 1,200 active construction sites.
TrafficVision's Interactive Map allows Munich residents to stay ahead of the gridlock. By zooming into the A99 or checking the entry points on the A9, you can confirm whether a reported "Stau" (traffic jam) is clearing up before you start your commute.

Driving in Bavaria
Germany is famous for its "no speed limit" autobahns, but many sections in Bavaria have variable speed limits based on traffic density or weather. Remember that winter tires are mandatory in snowy or icy conditions—a common occurrence on Bavarian roads from October to April.
