Newfoundland and Labrador's road network is defined by vast distances and rugged coastal terrain. The Trans-Canada Highway (Route 1) spans 903 kilometers across the island, serving as the province's primary artery. Monitoring these routes is essential for safe travel, especially during the Atlantic province's notoriously unpredictable weather.
Highway 1 (TCH)
40+ Live Cameras
The eastern terminus of the Trans-Canada Highway, stretching from the Port aux Basques ferry terminal to St. John's.
Highway 430 (Viking Trail)
10+ Live Cameras
The critical northern route connecting Deer Lake to the historic Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows.
St. John's Metro
15+ Live Cameras
Coverage of the capital city's major intersections, harbour area, and the Pitts Memorial Drive corridor.
St. John's Traffic Monitoring
St. John's, Canada's easternmost city and one of the oldest in North America, presents unique driving challenges with its steep hills and narrow historic streets. While rush hour congestion is moderate compared to larger Canadian metros, winter conditions can make even simple commutes treacherous.
Newfoundland Road Safety
In 2024, the RCMP in Newfoundland and Labrador recorded 34 traffic fatalities from 30 fatal incidents across the province. Distracted and impaired driving remain significant factors in serious accidents. Using real-time cameras to identify incident locations and verify visibility is a critical safety practice, particularly on high-volume urban corridors like Pitts Memorial Drive, which handles the bulk of St. John's commuter flow.

Traveling in Newfoundland and Labrador requires constant awareness of environmental factors. The province is highly dependent on ferry links and a single primary highway corridor across the island.
The Moose Collision Risk
Newfoundland and Labrador averages 539 moose-vehicle collisions annually, representing approximately 6% of all vehicle accidents in the province. The majority of these incidents (70%) occur between May and October, with the peak months of June through August being the most dangerous for nighttime travel. Visual confirmation of visibility through real-time cameras is a vital tool for drivers navigating rural segments of the Trans-Canada Highway after sunset.
Extreme Winter Severity
- Blizzards: Severe Atlantic storms frequently lead to total highway closures and whiteout conditions.
- High Winds: Extreme gusts on the "Wreckhouse" stretch of Highway 1 can literally blow high-sided vehicles off the road.
- Ferry Dependence: The island is isolated when Gulf ferries are cancelled due to weather, causing significant traffic backups at terminals.
- Highway Closures: Highway 1 can close for days during severe winter storms, leaving travelers stranded in rural communities.
