Grapevine camera questions
Is the Grapevine open?
Caltrans posts closures for I-5 on QuickMap and on its I-5 conditions page, and the CHP posts incidents. The cameras here show the road at each spot.
Where is the Grapevine?
The Grapevine is the stretch of I-5 over Tejon Pass, between Los Angeles County and the San Joaquin Valley in Kern County. It is in California, not the city of Grapevine in Texas. The cameras here run from Castaic to Wheeler Ridge.
Is there a way to see traffic camera footage?
Not past footage. Caltrans says: “Caltrans traffic camera video footage and still images are neither retained nor archived.” Each camera on this page links to its image on the Caltrans site.
Can I get a speeding ticket from a traffic camera?
No. These Caltrans cameras show the road. They are not speed or red light cameras, and they issue no tickets. Speed cameras have their own pages, such as California speed cameras.
Is there an app that tells you where traffic cameras are?
Yes. The CamsAhead app puts these traffic cameras on a map, with speed, red light and plate reader cameras.
How do I view traffic cameras on Google Maps?
Google Maps does not show Caltrans camera images. Caltrans QuickMap does, and so does this page: each row links to the camera's picture on Caltrans.
