Coverage details

Covers I-80 from Colfax to the Nevada line — some nearby roads aren't monitored. See what's included.

This status covers the known I-80 access paths from Colfax across Donner Summit and from the California–Nevada state line to the Truckee junction.

It doesn't include Nevada-side I-80 beyond the state line or local roads beyond the modeled approach, which aren't monitored. Verify those portions separately before traveling. District 3 Washoe County rows may remain visible route-wide as source truth, but they do not contribute to the Truckee access verdict.

Conditions can change quickly in the mountains. This page never replaces chain requirements, closures, or official Caltrans guidance. Neither surface makes a safe-to-drive or all-clear claim.
