Live Traffic Camera—A2 Eltham East W/B

If you have flexibility in your departure time, avoiding the peak windows of 07:30–09:30 and 16:30–19:00 on weekdays will generally result in a faster journey through A2 Eltham East W/B. Travelling before 07:00 or after 20:00 on weekdays, or in the early morning at weekends, typically means much lighter traffic. The JamCam above can help you judge whether it's worth setting off now or waiting.

Yes — the ULEZ covers all roads in Greater London, including this stretch of A2. The zone operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. There is no Congestion Charge at this location. Most petrol vehicles registered after 2005 and diesel vehicles after 2015 are ULEZ-compliant and won't be charged. Non-compliant cars and vans pay £12.50 per day. TfL's vehicle checker at tfl.gov.uk can confirm whether your vehicle needs to pay.

Yes — TfL JamCam cameras operate and transmit images 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. However, at night or in low-light conditions, image quality may be reduced. The camera image refreshes every five minutes at all hours. If the feed shows an error, the camera may be temporarily offline for maintenance. TfL's network has very high uptime — try refreshing after a few minutes if the image isn't loading.

Parking restrictions on the A2 and surrounding streets in East London vary — most A-roads in London have double yellow lines along the main carriageway with restricted parking during certain hours on side streets. For specific parking information, check the relevant London borough council's website or use an app such as JustPark or RingGo for pay-by-phone parking nearby. Red Routes (indicated by red lines) prohibit all stopping — many major arterials including parts of A2 are Red Routes.
