VIEW SAN JOSE CAMERAS →San Jose Metro Coverage Areas
San Jose serves as the primary hub for Silicon Valley, where several major national and state corridors converge. Our network provides comprehensive visibility into these critical commuter and commercial routes. According to 2023 Census data, the average one-way commute for San Jose residents is approximately 29.4 minutes, which is notably higher than the national average.
A recent study found that San Jose commuters spend an additional 72 hours annually sitting in rush-hour traffic. According to INRIX data, while congestion patterns shifted with the rise of telecommuting, a 33% decrease in remote work between 2022 and 2023 has contributed to a resurgence in peak-hour delays across the South Bay.

Tech Surge & Interchange Alerts
- The 101/880/17 Junction: This complex interchange near the airport is one of the state's most frequent chokepoints; any minor incident here cascades delays across three different corridors.
- Reverse Commute Surges: Unlike most metros, North San Jose and Sunnyvale experience heavy northbound evening traffic as workers head toward San Francisco and the Peninsula.
- SJC Access Bottleneck: SR-87 and US-101 approaches to San Jose International Airport consistently experience heavy congestion during peak flight banks.
- Silicon Valley Event Surges: Levi's Stadium events in nearby Santa Clara create massive, unpredictable surges on SR-237 and US-101 that can impact San Jose for hours.
