7:15 a.m. update: 394 ramp in Minnetonka reopened, 94 crash cleared

A tow truck has rescued the party who landed in the ditch while navigating the ramp from westbound 394 to northbound 494 in Minnetonka. The ramp has reopened.

In downtown Minneapolis, the fender bender on southbound 94 at 7th Street has been cleared. You'll still notice the squeeze from Broadway through the Lowry Tunnel.

Eastbound 94 is starting to see some crowding between Brockton Lane in Maple Grove down to the Fish Lake Split. Travel time from Hwy. 101 to the Fish Lake Split is now at 16 minutes.

In the north, look for lots of company on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to 694. Plan on 11 minutes from Lake Drive down to Hwy. 280.

Crunch, the crash on northbound Hwy. 169 on the Bloomington Ferry Bridge looks like it hurts. Traffic is bunching up at Canterbury Road.

The Drive will keep you up to speed with the latest on Twin Cities commuting.
