Kawazu River Mine Bridge Live Camera | Check River Water Level and Prefectural Route 14 Road Conditions

The Kawazu River Mine Bridge live camera is a river monitoring camera installed near Mine Bridge in Mine, Kawazu Town, Kamo District, Shizuoka Prefecture.

What You Can Check with the Kawazu River Mine Bridge Live Camera

This live camera lets you check the Kawazu River flow, the area around Mine Bridge, and the surroundings of Shizuoka Prefectural Route 14, the Shimosagano-Yatsu Line. In normal conditions, it helps show the river width, flow, and visibility around the bridge. Before and after heavy rain, it is useful for checking rising water, muddy flow, and conditions near the riverbank.

The Kawazu River flows through Kawazu Town, and nearby areas include Mine Onsen, rows of Kawazu cherry trees, and roads leading toward National Route 414. If you are moving around the area for sightseeing, commuting, shopping, or pickup and drop-off, checking the live camera together with the weather forecast and rain radar can be reassuring.

Useful for Checking Kawazu River Water Level During Heavy Rain or Typhoons

Because the Kawazu River flows from mountain areas toward central Kawazu Town, its water level and flow can change quickly when strong rain continues. The Mine Bridge live camera is useful when you want to check river turbidity, flow speed, and visibility around the bridge during heavy rain or when a typhoon is approaching.

However, avoid judging safety from live camera images alone. At night or during severe weather, the image may be difficult to see. Always also check river water-level information, rainfall information, weather warnings, and local evacuation information, and act early before danger becomes apparent.

Also Useful for Checking Prefectural Route 14 Road Conditions

The area around Mine Bridge is also useful before traveling along Shizuoka Prefectural Route 14, the Shimosagano-Yatsu Line. On rainy days, you can check the wetness of the road surface, visibility, nearby traffic volume, and the atmosphere around the riverside road. It can be a reference before moving from central Kawazu toward Mine Onsen or National Route 414.

After heavy rain or a typhoon, pay attention not only to river flooding but also to road flooding, falling rocks, and traffic restrictions. Use the camera as one local reference while also checking the latest road traffic and closure information.

Recommended During the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Season

Kawazu Town is known for its early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms, and many visitors come from early February to early March in typical years. The Mine Bridge area is close to cherry blossom spots along the Kawazu River and the Mine Onsen area, so roads and parking lots may become crowded during the season.

Checking weather and road conditions on the live camera before going out can help you adjust your visit time and prepare rain gear. If you want detailed bloom status, also check Kawazu cherry blossom-related live cameras to get a better sense of riverside conditions and crowd levels.

Notes When Using the Live Camera

Live camera images are reference information showing only part of the local area. The image may look different from actual surrounding conditions depending on camera direction, weather, time of day, and network conditions. Images may be hard to see especially at night, in dense fog, heavy rain, or strong wind.

When checking river flooding or whether roads can be used, always confirm river water-level information, rainfall information, weather warnings, local evacuation information, and road traffic information in addition to the live camera. Avoid going close to dangerous places to check directly, and prioritize safety.
