How to use the Greensboro 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.

Winter Weather and Rain to Impact Roads - Prepare for Slow Drives!
Updated Thu Dec 4th 2025, 11:15am PST
Great Lakes and Northeast Snow Challenges
Attention drivers in the Great Lakes region, including areas around Interstate 90 and Interstate 94. Snow showers will continue today and intensify on Friday. Expect moderate accumulations particularly downwind of lakes, leading to slick roads and reduced visibility. In the interior Northeast, including Interstate 81 and Interstate 87, snow squalls could create sudden white-out conditions. Plan for delays and travel safely.Western U.S. and Rocky Mountain Snow
Travelers venturing along the Cascade Highway and routes through the Rockies like U.S. Route 2 and U.S. Route 12 should prepare for heavy snow. Snowfall of 8-14 inches is expected, with mountain peaks seeing up to 3 feet. Mountain valleys and adjacent areas of the Great Basin and High Plains will also encounter snow and a wintry mix. Drive cautiously and be prepared for possible road closures or restrictions.Gulf Coast and Southeast Rainfall
Watch for wet roads along Interstate 10 and Interstate 20 from the Gulf Coast through the Southeast. Thunderstorms and moderate showers may lead to waterlogging, particularly in low-lying areas. Some local flooding may occur, so avoid water-covered roads and allow extra travel time.Midwest and Northeast Cold Front
Prepare for a big chill across Interstate 80 and Interstate 70 as arctic air brings record-low temperatures. Watch for icy conditions and drive with caution. Northern Mid-Atlantic roads like Pennsylvania Turnpike and Interstate 95 towards New England will see temperatures dip into single digits. Dress warmly and ensure your vehicle is winter-ready.
