This must be the morning for deer to take to the roads. Earlier, we had a car-vs-deer wreck on northbound Cedar Avenue at Old Shakopee Road.

Now we have one down on Valley View Road near the Home Depot and Prairie Center Drive in Eden Prairie. Keep your eyes peeled for them.

Elsewhere, traffic levels are just starting to pick up on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to Hwy. 280. That is 12 minutes.

On eastbound 94, plan on 10 to 13 minutes to get from Hwy. 101 to 494 through Rogers and Maple Grove.

Things bunch up on southbound 35E from County J to County 96. Ahead, look for pockets of slow conditions from Hwy. 36 to University Avenue. It's 10 minutes from 96 to I-94.
