DriveBC Cameras — Live Road Cameras & Map

British Columbia is the most mountainous province in Canada to drive, and that is exactly what makes its camera network so useful. The official provincial system, DriveBC, runs hundreds of highway webcams strung across the Coast Mountains, the Cascades, the Selkirks and the Rockies, plus the Lower Mainland's bridges and the routes up and down Vancouver Island. Whether you are heading from Vancouver up the Sea-to-Sky to Whistler, tackling the Coquihalla between Hope and Kamloops, or running Highway 1 over Rogers Pass toward the Alberta border, a quick look at the road before you leave can be the difference between a smooth trip and a surprise chain-up or closure.

What sets BC apart from many other regions is that a large share of its mountain-pass cameras come with native road-weather (RWIS) data right beside the image. At many sites you can see not just the picture but the air temperature, the pavement (road-surface) temperature, the surface condition and the wind. On the high passes that pavement-temperature reading is gold: a road can sit at or below freezing while the air feels mild, and seeing the surface temperature tells you whether that wet-looking lane is actually black ice. For winter pass driving, that is the single most valuable number on the screen.

Our map pulls these official DriveBC feeds into one fast, searchable view, organized by the corridors travelers actually use. Filter to the Lower Mainland for bridge and commute traffic, jump to the Sea-to-Sky for the Whistler run, scan the Coquihalla and Fraser Canyon for the Interior crossings, or check Rogers Pass, the Okanagan, Vancouver Island and Northern BC. Pair the camera image with the on-screen road-weather and you will know what tires, what timing and what fallback plan the day calls for before you ever pull onto the highway.
