VIEW PHILIPPINES MAP →The Philippines features some of the most intense urban traffic in the world, serving as a critical but challenging landscape for millions of daily commuters and logistics providers. For drivers in Metro Manila and the rapidly expanding cities of Visayas and Mindanao, real-time visual data is an essential tool for surviving the nation's chronic congestion and frequent weather-related disruptions.
TrafficVision provides a unified platform to access 1,500+ camera feeds from the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), DPWH, and various expressway concessionaires. Whether you're checking for a flood on España Boulevard or monitoring the queue at the Balintawak toll plaza, our platform delivers instant insight into the Philippines' transit landscape.
Metro Manila & EDSA
Monitor the nation's most critical artery. Track the entire stretch of EDSA, the C-5 road, and the primary radial routes. Essential for navigating the heart of the Philippines' most congested region.
NLEX & SLEX Expressways
Track conditions along the primary links to the North and South. Monitor the heavy commuter and freight flows connecting the capital with the industrial and residential hubs of Luzon.
Davao & Mindanao
View cameras in the nation's most congested city. Monitor the primary thoroughfares of Davao City and the key transit routes across the southern island.
Cebu & the Visayas
Monitor the transport hub of the central Philippines, including the primary bridges connecting Cebu City with Mactan and the coastal expressways.
Managing Asia's Most Challenging Traffic Environment
The Philippine road network, particularly in its major metropolitan areas, faces extreme pressure. In 2025, the Philippines ranked as the most congested country in Asia and the 3rd most congested globally, with an average congestion level of 45% (Source: TomTom/StatRanker).
The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and the MMDA manage this complexity through massive infrastructure projects, including the planned 2025 rehabilitation of EDSA (Source: Gulf News). This is a vital response to a corridor where daily vehicle volumes of 400,000 cars consistently exceed the design capacity of 300,000 (Source: ABS-CBN).

Grid Scanning
Use our Grid View to monitor multiple points along the SLEX or NLEX simultaneously.
Navigating the Metro Manila Gridlock
Metro Manila's traffic is legendary for its difficulty. In 2025, drivers in the capital lost an estimated 143 hours annually to rush-hour traffic, with travel times for a short 10 km journey frequently exceeding 31 minutes (Source: TomTom/Inquirer). These delays are often worsened by the increasing number of registered vehicles without a corresponding increase in design capacity.
TrafficVision's Interactive Map allows Filipino drivers to find a "diskarte" (alternative). By zooming into the Magallanes interchange or checking the Grid View for the Quezon Avenue approaches, you can confirm whether a reported accident is worth a detour through residential "Mabuhay Lanes" before you start your journey.

Driving in the Philippines
The Philippines drives on the right side of the road. Major highways are indicated by "N" (National roads) and "E" (Expressways). Speed limits are typically 100 km/h on expressways and 40-60 km/h in urban areas. Be aware of the "Number Coding" (UVVRP) scheme in Metro Manila based on your license plate.
