Miami Traffic Cameras
Miami sits at the heart of one of America's most congested metro areas. From the constant churn of I-95 to the strategic causeways connecting downtown to South Beach, staying ahead of Miami's unpredictable traffic requires real-time visual intelligence.

VIEW MIAMI CAMERAS →Miami-Dade County serves as the economic and cultural engine of Florida. With over 2.7 million residents and millions of annual tourists, the region's infrastructure is constantly under pressure. According to INRIX 2024 data, Miami remains one of the most congested cities in the world, ranking 6th in the United States and 15th globally. The typical Miami driver lost an estimated 75 hours to gridlock in 2024, highlighting the critical importance of monitoring live camera feeds before heading out.
Major Miami Traffic Corridors
Miami's traffic is dictated by a series of north-south interstates and east-west expressways that funnel millions of vehicles daily.
I-95: The Main Artery
100+ cameras
Consistently ranked among America's most congested highways. Running from the Broward line through downtown Miami, this stretch is the backbone of the region. Monitor these cameras for the express lane bottlenecks and the brutal rush hour flows near the Golden Glades Interchange.
Palmetto Expressway (SR-826)
85+ cameras
Wrapping around the western and northern sides of the city, the Palmetto is a vital industrial and commuter link. It is notorious for sudden slow-downs and heavy truck traffic near the airport and Medley.
Dolphin Expressway (SR-836)
60+ cameras
The primary east-west link between Miami International Airport and downtown. As a major toll road, it experiences heavy volume from commuters moving between the western suburbs and the urban core.
Florida's Turnpike
60+ cameras
The main toll artery for travelers moving between Miami and the rest of the state. The Homestead Extension (HEFT) is particularly critical for residents in Doral, Kendall, and Homestead.

According to research from ConsumerAffairs in 2025, the average daily commute time in Miami is just over 29 minutes, with TomTom data indicating that rush hour commuters spend an average of 147 hours per year stuck in delays.
The I-95 Rush Hour Reality
I-95 through Miami is a 24/7 operation, but peak hours are particularly punishing.
- Morning Southbound: Gridlock typically starts at 6:30 AM and doesn't break until after 9:30 AM.
- Evening Northbound: The exodus from Downtown and Brickell begins as early as 3:30 PM and can last until 7:30 PM. Users can also monitor live street feeds along Biscayne Boulevard and Brickell Avenue to check for road-level gridlock near the downtown offices or waterfront parks.
- Friday Effect: Weekend travel starts early in Miami; Friday afternoons are notoriously bad starting at 2:00 PM.
Miami-Dade Road Safety
Statistics from the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) recorded approximately 64,000 total crashes in Miami-Dade County in 2023, resulting in over 300 fatalities. This underlines the importance of using real-time cameras not just for speed, but for visual confirmation of incident locations and emergency response presence.
Miami Beach Causeways
Accessing Miami Beach is limited to a handful of causeways, each with its own personality. The MacArthur Causeway (I-395) is the most direct but also the most prone to event-related gridlock. The Julia Tuttle (I-195) serves as the primary link for mid-beach residents, while the Venetian Causeway offers a slower, scenic alternative.
Tropical Weather Impacts
Miami's weather can turn from sun to torrential rain in minutes. These "flash floods" often lead to immediate accidents and stalls on the expressways. Using our live cameras to verify road visibility during a thunderstorm can help you decide whether to wait out the storm or seek an alternative route.
Drawbridge Alert: Many Miami routes, especially those crossing the Miami River or the Intracoastal, involve drawbridges. A single bridge opening can create backups that ripple through the entire downtown grid. Check intersection cameras for bridge-related delays.
