Live Traffic Camera—A3 Clapham Rd/Handforth Street

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 A3 Clapham Rd/Handforth Street. 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.

This location is outside the Congestion Charge Zone, so no CC charge applies. However, like all roads in Greater London, this location falls inside the ULEZ boundary, meaning ULEZ applies here 24 hours a day. Most petrol cars from 2006 onwards and diesel cars from 2015 onwards are compliant and pay nothing. Older vehicles face a daily ULEZ charge of £12.50. Check TfL's free vehicle checker at tfl.gov.uk to find out if your car or van is affected.

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.
