From the County: The Matlacha live traffic cameras are a pilot program to evaluate the effectiveness, helpfulness, and usefulness of implementing this type of technology in select areas of the County.  The goal is to provide citizens that plan to travel to and from Pine Island through Matlacha with a real time view of travel conditions on the Pine Island Road corridor. This pilot program will run for a period of time and then be evaluated.
