How are New Zealand traffic alerts updated on KiwiCamsNZ?

Live incident data is synced directly every 10 minutes from Waka Kotahi (NZ Transport Agency) and matched with nearby traffic CCTV cameras across State Highways.

Can I see live cameras near road closures or crashes?

Yes! Each road incident card displays the closest live traffic cameras in real-time so you can visually verify highway conditions before driving.
