View Biysk Cameras ->Biysk is a strategic transport hub in southern Siberia and the official "Science City" (Naukograd) of the Altai Krai. With a population of approximately 181,000 residents as of 2024, it is the second-largest city in the region and a vital economic engine. Situated at the confluence of the Biya and Katun rivers, it marks the true beginning of the legendary Chuysky Trakt (R256), one of the most beautiful highways in Russia, connecting Siberia to the Mongolian border.
Our platform aggregates 1,200+ live traffic cameras from official federal feeds and regional road agencies, providing comprehensive coverage of the city's transit corridors, river crossings, and busy intersections.

Key Biysk Transportation Corridors
Biysk's traffic flow is dominated by its role as a transit hub for the Altai region. Camera feeds are primarily sourced from Rosavtodor, which operates the official traffic monitoring network for federal highways.
- R256 Chuysky Trakt (The Siberian Spine): As the primary logistical artery, segments near Biysk handle over 20,000 vehicles per day during summer peaks. Cameras cover the museum district and the main exit road, capturing the stream of tourist buses and private cars.
- Biya River Bridge (Kommunalny): The main artery connecting the two halves of the city. Cameras provide clear views of the bridge deck and the approaches from Lane Kommunarsky, vital for monitoring winter ice and summer repair work.
- City Center & Urban Landmarks: Intersections near the Biysk Drama Theater and the Central Park are monitored to manage local traffic flow for residents commuting to the city's scientific enterprises.
- P375 (Solton Tract): The road leading east toward industrial coal mining regions. Cameras monitor the heavy vehicle traffic and connections to the city's eastern bypass.
The Chuysky Trakt Museum
Biysk is home to the only museum in the world dedicated to a road—the Chuysky Trakt Museum. Cameras near the "Zero Kilometer" marker allow you to see the start of this historic trade route that dates back to the Silk Road era.
Critical Bottlenecks and Seasons
The "Tourist Wave": On Friday evenings in summer and before New Year holidays, traffic entering Biysk from the north (Novosibirsk/Barnaul) and exiting south spikes dramatically. Cameras help you gauge the size of the "tourist caravan" heading toward the mountain resorts.
Winter Visibility: Siberian winters are harsh. Road safety is a significant focus in the Altai Krai, which reported 212 traffic fatalities in 2024—a decrease of 3.2% compared to the previous year. Cameras on the Biya River bridge and the bypass are essential for checking visibility during blizzards and verifying if snowplows have cleared the lanes.
Spring Floods: The Biya River can rise significantly in spring. While the main bridges are high, monitoring the embankment roads via camera feeds is a prudent safety measure during the thaw and ice-drift seasons.
