Live Traffic Camera—A40(M) Eastern End

Peak times at A40(M) Eastern End are the standard London rush windows: weekday mornings from roughly 07:30 to 09:30 and evenings from 16:30 to 19:00. During school terms, an additional peak around 08:15–09:00 and again at 15:00–16:00 affects roads near schools. Saturdays between 11:00 and 15:00 can also bring significant congestion, particularly on routes with retail nearby. For real-time conditions at this specific point, check the JamCam feed above — it refreshes every five minutes.

Yes — like all roads in Greater London, this location falls inside the ULEZ boundary. The ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) applies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year, with no time restrictions. Most petrol cars registered after 2005 and diesel cars registered after 2015 meet the emission standards and pay nothing. Older or non-compliant vehicles pay a daily charge of £12.50 (cars and light vans). This location is outside the Congestion Charge Zone, so no CC charge applies. Use TfL's free ULEZ vehicle checker at tfl.gov.uk to verify your vehicle.

TfL's JamCam network operates at over 95% uptime across its 900+ cameras. Individual cameras can go offline temporarily due to maintenance, power issues or road damage, but outages are usually resolved within hours. When this specific camera is unavailable, the page will show an error message — nearby cameras in the strip below the main feed often give a useful alternative view. TfL's Open Data API also occasionally experiences brief delays, which can result in images that are slightly older than the usual five-minute interval.
