How to use the Kimball 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.

Severe Weather and Wildfire Risks Across Plains - March 5th-7th
Updated Thu Mar 5th 2026, 6:11am PST
Severe Weather in the Plains and Midwest
Commuters and travelers should be aware of severe thunderstorms predicted today through Friday, affecting major routes like I-35 and I-40 from western Texas to southern Kansas. Expect potential flash flooding, especially near the Red River Valley and Ohio Valley areas. As storms move east, anticipate severe weather extending to parts of the Midwest on Friday. Keep an eye on road conditions and plan for possible delays. Wildfire Risks in the Southern High Plains
Strong winds and dry conditions could elevate wildfire risks on I-40 and surrounding routes across eastern New Mexico and into western Texas through Friday. Be cautious when traveling in these regions and stay informed about any road closures or detours. Wintry Conditions in the Rockies and New England
Parts of the central and northern Rockies, including areas near I-70 and I-80, will experience heavy snow today, with accumulations ranging from 6 to 12 inches. Travel safely and expect delays, especially in higher terrains. In New England, a wintry mix may impact routes like I-90 and I-91 from this evening into Friday morning. Freezing rain could lead to slippery conditions, so drive cautiously and allow extra travel time. Above Average Temperatures in the Great Plains and East
Across the Great Plains and much of the eastern U.S., highways such as I-80 and I-70 will see temperatures 20-30 degrees above average through Friday. While no immediate weather-related road issues are expected, be aware of increased travel due to the pleasant conditions.
