Our platform aggregates feeds from Alberta Transportation's 511 system and City of Calgary municipal cameras, giving you comprehensive coverage of traffic conditions across southern Alberta's largest metro area. Calgary commuters averaged a travel time of 25.3 minutes in May 2024, reflecting a return to pre-pandemic traffic patterns according to Statistics Canada.
According to the Calgary Police Service, 2024 saw a 10-year record high in traffic fatalities, underscoring the critical importance of real-time monitoring and speed management on major arteries like Deerfoot Trail.
These cameras are part of the world's largest traffic camera directory with 135,000+ live feeds from 600+ official sources worldwide.

CREATE YOUR ROUTE →Calgary's Traffic Challenges
Calgary's geography and climate create a uniquely demanding driving environment that makes real-time camera monitoring essential throughout the year.
Deerfoot Congestion & Weather Alerts
- Deerfoot Trail Bottlenecks: Calgary's north-south lifeline regularly grinds to a halt at the Memorial Drive, McKnight Boulevard, and Glenmore Trail interchanges — check cameras at these pinch points before committing to the freeway.
- Chinook Wind Temperature Swings: Calgary's signature Chinook winds can push temperatures from -20°C to +10°C in a matter of hours, creating treacherous freeze-thaw cycles, black ice, and sudden fog on elevated sections of Stoney Trail and Deerfoot.
- Winter Driving Conditions: Heavy snowfall, freezing rain, and extended cold snaps create hazardous conditions from October through April. Calgary saw a 10-year high of 29 traffic fatalities in 2024; visual confirmation of road surface conditions and salt truck activity is essential for safe winter travel.
- Construction & Stampede Disruptions: Major ring road expansions and the annual Calgary Stampede in July cause significant detours and lane closures across the downtown core and Macleod Trail corridor.
