Denver Traffic Map
How to use the Denver Traffic Map
Traffic flow lines: Red/White dashed lines = Closed Road, Grey/White dashed lines = Road Work, Red lines = Heavy traffic flow, Yellow/Orange lines = Medium flow and Green = normal traffic. Black lines or No traffic flow lines could indicate a closed road, but in most cases it means that either there is not enough vehicle flow to register or traffic isn't monitored. Also, If you do not see traffic flow, you can zoom in closer to reveal localized data. If you are unable to pan the map, press here (to focus off of the map) and try again.
Traffic Incidents: Each icon represents a traffic event or incident such as road construction, closure (red circle with a white dash) or accident.
In known extreme weather events, flooding, or accidents, the map may still show green lines, even if lanes or the entire road is closed.
- Click or touch the map to move in different directions.
- If you do not see any markers on the map, try zooming in one or two levels using "+" on the top left side. However, they are not always available.
- Click an incident icon on the map to get more information.

National Traffic Forecast
Commuters and travelers should be on alert as multiple rounds of heavy rain and thunderstorms are expected in the Central U.S. from Monday through Tuesday. Severe weather threats loom over the Dakotas, with hot temperatures lingering across the Plains and fire weather concerns out West. This could impact several major highways, interstates, and state routes, making travel potentially hazardous.
Drivers on Interstate 35 and Interstate 70 should anticipate heavy downpours from Monday through Tuesday, which could lead to slick roads and reduced visibility. Areas from Kentucky to Tennessee may see 1 to 3 inches of rainfall, affecting routes like U.S. Route 31 and Interstate 65, possibly causing localized flooding and delays.
Severe thunderstorms are likely for the western Dakotas, particularly impacting Interstate 94 and U.S. Route 83 on Sunday night and again on Tuesday. Expect damaging winds and possible hurricane-force gusts, which could result in downed trees and power lines, making for dangerous travel conditions.
In Washington and Oregon, travelers on Interstate 5 and U.S. Route 101 should prepare for rain on Monday due to an incoming Pacific cold front. Meanwhile, hot and dry conditions with gusty winds across the Intermountain West could spark wildfires, affecting highways like Interstate 15 and U.S. Route 89.
The central Plains will experience hot weather early this week, particularly around U.S. Route 50 and Interstate 80. However, a cold front will bring relief to the Dakotas, reducing temperatures and potentially easing travel conditions.
The East Coast, including routes like Interstate 95 and U.S. Route 1, will experience a slight drop in temperatures and humidity at the start of the work week, which should ease some travel concerns.
