Indiana Traffic Cameras: 850+ Live Cams

Camera Coverage

Indiana's traffic camera network spans the state's major interstates and metro areas. According to INDOT's Jurisdictional Tabulation of Mileage, the agency manages a massive infrastructure where even individual counties like Allen have over 2,900 miles of public roadway. Safety is a primary focus; during Federal Fiscal Year 2024, total traffic fatalities decreased by 13.5% compared to 2022 levels. In calendar year 2023, Indiana recorded 928 motor vehicle fatalities, continuing a downward trend from 949 in 2022. In addition to highway monitoring, users can access live street feeds and road-level views along major surface arterials like Meridian Street in Indianapolis and Coliseum Boulevard in Fort Wayne to check for localized gridlock. These road-level views are essential for navigating around surface street construction and stadium events during winter snowstorms or holiday surges.

Major Indiana Corridors

I-65: Main North-South Artery

I-65 runs 261 miles through Indiana from the Michigan border to Louisville, Kentucky, carrying some of the heaviest truck traffic in the Midwest. The corridor passes through three distinct zones: the industrial northwest near Gary and Hammond, the capital city through Indianapolis, and the rolling hills of southern Indiana toward the Ohio River.

• Northwest Indiana: The Borman Expressway (I-80/94) through Gary and Hammond is the busiest interstate corridor in the state, accommodating over 200,000 vehicles per day with trucks constituting up to 31% of daily volume. This section absorbs Chicago-area congestion spillover.
• Lafayette/West Lafayette: Purdue University area with gameday surges and steady commuter traffic
• Indianapolis metro: I-65/I-70 junction at the North Split is the state's most complex interchange
• Southern Indiana: Columbus to Louisville with moderate truck volumes and cross-river commuters

I-70: East-West Route

I-70 crosses 157 miles of Indiana, serving as a major transcontinental freight corridor from Illinois to Ohio. Through Indianapolis, it shares lanes with I-65 in the downtown Inner Loop before splitting east toward Richmond and Ohio.

• Terre Haute: Illinois border crossing with moderate traffic
• Indianapolis through-traffic: Shared I-65/I-70 downtown section creates daily bottlenecks
• East side: Heavy truck congestion between Indianapolis and the Ohio border

I-74: Diagonal Route

I-74 enters Indiana from Illinois near Danville, passes through Indianapolis, and exits toward Cincinnati. It connects the Indianapolis suburbs to southeastern Indiana communities and carries moderate commuter traffic.

I-69: Fort Wayne to Bloomington

Indiana's newest completed interstate runs 278 miles from the Michigan border through Fort Wayne south to Bloomington. The northern section through Fort Wayne is well established, while the southern extension was completed more recently. Traffic is generally lighter than on I-65 or I-70.

Indianapolis Metro

Indianapolis sits at the intersection of I-65, I-70, I-74, and I-69, with the I-465 beltway encircling the city. This convergence makes Indy the true crossroads of the state's highway system. The city's 880,000 residents face an average one-way commute of approximately 26 minutes, with car commuters spending an average of 50 hours annually stuck in traffic. This congestion is compounded by through-traffic and event-driven surges.

See the dedicated Indianapolis Traffic Cameras Guide for detailed metro coverage.

Key Indianapolis bottlenecks:

• North Split (I-65/I-70): Downtown interchange handles merging traffic from both interstates — rush hour congestion is a daily certainty
• I-465 West Side: Airport traffic plus Indianapolis Motor Speedway event traffic
• I-70 East Side: Truck-heavy corridor with consistent congestion
• I-465/I-69 Northeast: Growing suburban traffic from Fishers and Noblesville

Other Major Indiana Cities

Fort Wayne

Indiana's second-largest city (270,000) sits along the I-69 corridor in the northeast. Fort Wayne is an industrial and manufacturing center with relatively light traffic. The I-69/US-30 interchange is the primary congestion point during rush hours.

Evansville

Southern Indiana's largest city (118,000) sits on the Ohio River at the junction of I-69 and I-64. Evansville serves as a regional hub with moderate traffic and straightforward highway access.

South Bend

Home to Notre Dame (103,000 residents), South Bend sits along the I-80/I-90 Indiana Toll Road in northern Indiana. Traffic is typically manageable except during Notre Dame football weekends, when gameday traffic on I-80/90 and local roads creates significant congestion.

Indiana Traffic Challenges

• Indy 500 (May): The month-long event creates traffic chaos across the Indianapolis metro, with practice, qualifying, and race weekend each generating massive congestion on I-465's west side
• Winter weather: Lake-effect snow hits northern counties (Gary, South Bend, Elkhart) hard; ice storms can paralyze travel statewide
• Through-traffic: Massive truck volume on I-65 and I-70 means freight congestion even outside rush hours
• Indianapolis convergence: All major routes funnel through downtown, creating bottlenecks at the North Split and Inner Loop
• Construction: Frequent road work on aging interstate infrastructure, particularly along I-65 and I-70

Seasonal Patterns

May: Indy 500 Month

The Indianapolis 500 transforms the city's west side for the entire month of May. Practice sessions, qualifying weekends, and race day each create waves of congestion. I-465 west side bears the heaviest impact, and the Speedway neighborhood becomes gridlocked on event days.

Winter (December - February)

• Northern Indiana: Gary, South Bend, and Elkhart receive lake-effect snow from Lake Michigan that can drop visibility to near zero
• Statewide ice storms: Freezing rain events can paralyze the entire highway system
• I-65 and I-70: Major corridors are salted and plowed first, but conditions deteriorate rapidly between treatments
• Check cameras before all winter travel

Football Season (Fall)

• Notre Dame (South Bend): Gameday traffic on I-80/90 and US-31 creates multi-hour congestion
• Indianapolis Colts: Downtown congestion around Lucas Oil Stadium on game days
• Purdue and Indiana University: Local traffic impacts near West Lafayette and Bloomington
