The Massachusetts Turnpike Authority has installed web site traffic cameras, the latest addition to M.A.P., the Motorist Advantage Program, an informational outreach initiative from the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority and the Central Artery / Tunnel Project designed to comprehensively educate the public on the Artery Project and to help motorists navigate the Artery roadways.
The web site traffic cameras can be found at www.masspike.com and by clicking on “Live TrafficCam†on the left hand side of the page.
“We are very excited to launch this new facet of our web site and to the Motorist Advantage Program,†said Chairman Matthew J. Amorello. “This is a great technological enhancement for motorists to use before they leave for their daily commutes. With all of the Central Artery / Tunnel Project’s recent openings, real-time traffic information will help not only our internal staff at the Operations Control Center, but also help the general public during critical travel times.â€
There are five traffic cameras on www.masspike.com in the downtown Boston area:
I-93 Northbound, at the entrance to the I-93 Northbound Tunnel
I-93 Northbound, exiting the tunnel and up onto the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge

Traffic views of I-90 Westbound, with the on-ramp to I-93 Northbound
I-90 East and Westbound, which shows the exit to I-93 Northbound from I-90 Westbound
The traffic cameras will show approximately 12 seconds of video per selected camera.
