How to use the Asheville Traffic Map
A static map with traffic flow is shown first and to start using the interactive map you press the blue Load button above to go live.
Traffic Incidents: Each icon represents a traffic event or incident such as road construction, closure (red circle with a white dash), or accident. In some regions there may also be live traffic camaras to view.
In known extreme weather events or accidents, the map may still show green lines, even if lanes or the entire road are closed.
Tips
- 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.
FAQs
Q) How often is the map updated?
A) The traffic flow is updated at loadtime and upon movement outside the initial map view, or upon refresh of the page. Any incident markers are checked for updates approximately every 5-10 minutes, but you need to reload the page to load any new updates; the data provided may still be the same status/view as before. Information shown is as only reliable as how it is reported to us.
Q) The roads are backed up or closed, but the map does not show the reason why, what's the deal?A) Municipal traffic monitors or GPS trackers may not be available, could be offline, or reports and alerts are not syndicated to media outside of the area to use on the map. This is especially true for rural areas. You are encouraged to leave a road conditions report to help others.
Q) I see traffic alerts in the box below for the state, but they aren't related to the area I'm in? A) We attempt to display alerts as specific to the area as possible, however in some cases the data we receive will only allow us to provide it by county or even statewide.
Q) Are you an official source of traffic information? A) We are not an official source of traffic or real-time data. We have contracts and licenses to display certain up-to-date information that comes direct from some DOTs in various states, and the traffic flow on the maps is provided by Google, Mapbox or TomTom. However, the data shown here should only be used for light informational and reference purposes and not to make critical decisions. Your safest option on the web is to use your state-run traffic website, or to call the DOT traffic line for your state, local authorities, or the state's 511 number if available.

National Traffic Forecast
Stormy Roads Ahead: Impacts from Nov 7 to Nov 9
Updated Fri Nov 7th 2025, 5:39am PST
Northern US and Great Lakes
We can expect some unsettled weather across the northern tier today. If you are traveling on I-94 or US Route 2, be prepared for wet conditions and possibly mixed snow, especially as we head into Saturday and Sunday. The Great Plains will see frigid air spilling over, making roads slick and travel potentially hazardous. Take caution when traveling on I-29 and Highway 83.Tennessee and Ohio Valleys
Today, scattered thunderstorms will impact I-65 and I-75 as well as Highway 31. These routes might experience delays due to rain and storms that could intensify, especially overnight. As these storms roll through, be vigilant and ensure your vehicle is prepared for slick conditions.Northeast and Mid-Atlantic
Rain showers are expected on highways such as I-95 and I-87 today, with some snow mixing in across northern New Hampshire and Maine this evening. Travelers should prepare for reduced visibility and slower travel times especially into the weekend.Northwest and Central Plains
Expect mixed precipitation across parts of the Northwest today, impacting routes like I-90 and US Route 395. By Saturday and Sunday, this will affect the Central Plains on I-70 and I-35, so plan for variable road conditions.Texas
Temperatures will soar in Texas with record-breaking highs on Friday and Saturday. If you are commuting along I-10 or I-35, ensure your vehicle's cooling system is functioning well as temperatures could reach into the 90s. An Arctic front on Sunday will bring a temperature drop, so be prepared for cooler conditions rapidly changing by the end of the weekend.East Coast
Expect above-average temperatures and unseasonably warm conditions through the weekend along the East Coast on I-95 and US Route 1. While travel conditions should be favorable, check for any updates on possible rain as systems move through the area.
