No problems on the roads at this hour. We are crash and incident free and traffic is moving at or near the posted speeds.

This includes southbound 494 from Maple Grove to Plymouth, southbound 35W from Lexington Avenue to Hwy. 280 and southbound 35E from the Forest Lake split down to 694.

No issues on south metro routes for drivers using northbound Hwy. 169, Cedar Avenue and 35W.

East metro routes are seeing building levels, but it's still a fine drive along Hwy. 36 and westbound 94 into St. Paul.
