How to use the Detroit 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.

National Traffic Forecast

 

Weekend Travel Disruptions Expected in the South and Northwest
Updated Fri Feb 13th 2026, 4:01am PST
Southern and Southeastern States
Expect heavy rain to cause travel disruptions from Friday into Saturday, especially along major roads such as I-10, I-20, and I-30 in areas like the ArkLaTex and lower Mississippi Valley. Severe thunderstorms with gusty winds and isolated hail could occur, creating hazardous driving conditions. A marginal risk of flash flooding will be a concern, potentially impacting US-59 and US-61, particularly in low-lying areas. By Sunday, the system will move into the Southeast, affecting I-85 and I-95, with possibilities of a rain/snow mix in higher elevations.
Pacific Northwest and Interior West
Travelers in the Pacific Northwest should prepare for snow showers on Friday afternoon into Saturday, particularly along I-84 and I-90 in higher elevation areas. As the front advances, expect snowfall to increase on Sunday along I-5 as it impacts northern California. These conditions may lead to slick roads, so exercise caution and plan for delays.
Central Plains
While many will enjoy well above normal temperatures, with highs in the 60s and 70s, especially in Texas where temperatures might reach into the 80s, be aware that this warmth may cause some isolated weather events. Expect smoother travel conditions along I-35 and I-40, but always remain alert for any sudden weather changes.
