The injury crash on westbound 494 at Hardman Avenue has cleared, and traffic is getting back to normal. All lanes are open and things are moving once again.

Ahead, it's smooth sailing from Hwy. 5 over to Hwy. 100.

A crash is blocking a lane on westbound Hwy. 36 at Manning Avenue. Once you pass the scene, you'll only need a few minutes to reach 694.

Other routes are just in the building stages, so no big delays to report elsewhere.

If you see anything on the roads, let me know @stribdrive or by e-mail at drive@startribune.com. I'll pass the information on to your fellow commuters.
