Many people who visit this website seem to believe that is is being operated either by Caltrans, MTC or another government body.

In fact, SF Bay Traffic is a private and independent organization. This website, which started as a labor of love, incurs significant hosting and operating costs and efforts.

We are proudly running all our operations, including engineering, in the USA. We are not farming jobs where labor is cheap, like most Bay Area companies do. We are proud of local expertise and talent.

SF Bay Traffic serves the community by providing timely and accurate traveler information free of charge on the present website, and by publishing community-service messages through our Google partnership.
