Live Traffic Camera—A406 Abbey Road Underpass

Traffic on the A406 in Ealing is heaviest during the weekday morning rush (07:30–09:30) and the evening peak (16:30–19:00). School term-time adds additional pressure in the morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up windows. The live camera above is the best indicator of current conditions at this specific point — TfL refreshes JamCam images every five minutes, giving you an up-to-date snapshot before you set off.

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.

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 A406 and surrounding streets in Ealing 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 A406 are Red Routes.
