What's New in CHPMap

October 12, 2026

Ready for chain season. • Trip mode: plan a mountain drive and see every chain-control checkpoint on the way, with live Caltrans status in each direction and what drivers at the checkpoint are reporting. Tap "Plan a mountain drive", or switch your home screen in Settings ▸ Home screen. • Mountain briefing: choose when you're leaving and see the whole drive on one timeline — the climb, the forecast for when you reach each stretch, snow and possible ice, chain controls and closures. Each item shows where it came from and how old it is. • Where there's a real choice over the mountains, like I-80 or US-50, compare the two side by side. • Drive mode shows only the next thing that changes and announces checkpoints as you get close. • Checkpoint hub: Caltrans status, driver reports, cameras, weather and signs for a checkpoint on one screen. Add your own report from the road. • Siri: "Are chains required in CHPMap", "Chain controls on 80 in CHPMap", "Incidents near me in CHPMap". • Get updates on an incident: tap the bell and we'll notify you when it's updated or CHP takes it off the list. Already using CHPMap? Your map opens just as it did before.

Will not work on Apple devices

Useless but not their fault

It’s not the software, it must be the CHP but a lot of incidents on state and federal highways are just not appearing on the map. I used to rely on it but can’t anymore. Today there was a major incident on highway 29 in Napa County. It never was on the map. Last week 3 lanes blocked on US 101 in Santa Rosa. Never was on the map. The app is now useless. The incidents are also not appearing on the CHP incidents site, so it’s the CHP’s fault.

Push Notifications

You seem to have to know some kind of ICU programing language just to configure the push notifications. Ther are no instrucitons that I can find on how to do this from the app creator.

Nicely done

I’ve been using this for years. It’s very useful for getting accurate up to date info on CHP calls. I’m not sure what I’d do without it.

So frustrating

Update: I would like my money back if you cannot fix the problem please. I have removed and downloaded the app 20+ times and still can not get it to work. Thank you for updating but it's still not working! I'm about to give up.
