The BC Highways traffic cam here is just off the southwest end of the French Creek Bridge on the southwest side of the highway, looking northwest at the bridge. Due to a lack of electricity at the location, the camera and transmitter are solar powered, using solar panels mounted on a tall pole above the camera and storage batteries on the ground below.
Visiting
Given that it's possible to "Replay The Day" on the web cam's web page, one need only stand at the coordinates for at least two minutes to ensure that they're captured on a minimum of one frame, then find and save the appropriate image later that day. Alternatively, if one has an internet connection in their hand tuned to the URL below, they only need wait until they appear on their screen, then save that frame.
The image below is essentially real time and will update every 2 minutes, but only if you update the page manually. BC Highway webcams are owned and operated by the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. They are accessible online at
DriveBC.
