About St. Paul Traffic Cameras
TrafficVision.Live provides free access to 380+ live traffic cameras throughout St. Paul and Ramsey County. Our platform aggregates feeds from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) 511 system and municipal authorities, giving you comprehensive coverage of traffic conditions across the "Saintly City." These cameras are part of the world's largest traffic camera directory with 135,000+ live feeds from 600+ official sources worldwide.
Whether you're planning your commute to the State Capitol, checking current road conditions on the Robert Street Bridge, or monitoring traffic for a Wild game at the Xcel Energy Center, our St. Paul traffic camera network provides real-time visibility into the region's transportation infrastructure. View live feeds from major routes including I-35E, I-94, US-52, US-61, MN-5, MN-51 (Snelling Ave), and Robert Street. Commuters can also monitor live street views along Snelling Avenue and Robert Street to avoid surface street delays near the state office complexes and fairgrounds.
Minnesota Road Safety
In 2025, preliminary data from MnDOT recorded 370 traffic fatalities statewide, a significant 22% drop from the previous year. High-volume bridge crossings like the Lafayette (US-52) and the complex "Spaghetti Bowl" interchange remain primary areas of concern for regional road safety. Real-time camera monitoring is a vital tool for identifying incident locations early and achieving MnDOT's long-term goal of reducing roadway fatalities to no more than 225 annually by 2030.

Navigating the St. Paul area requires an understanding of infrastructure that serves state government, regional healthcare, and massive seasonal event surges.
Bridge & Event Traffic Alerts
- The Spaghetti Bowl (I-35E/I-94): The downtown interchange is the region's primary bottleneck; any minor incident here creates cascading delays across both Twin Cities.
- Mississippi River Chokepoints: With limited bridge crossings, incidents on the Lafayette (US-52) or Wabasha bridges create immediate gridlock through the downtown grid.
- State Fair Chaos: In late August, Snelling Avenue and I-94 experience extreme, all-day congestion as millions of visitors converge on the fairgrounds.
- Winter Bluff Hazards: St. Paul's steep terrain and river bluffs create localized icing risks; visual confirmation of actual road surface treatment is essential for safe winter travel.
