Traffic is actually moving pretty well in the metro, except on 694 in the north metro and westbound 36 through Roseville.

On 694, eastbound traffic is sluggish from Hwy. 252 to 35E. That drive will take 20 minutes. Drivers heading west will need 16 minutes. Ahead, look for a truck stalled on the right shoulder at Brooklyn Blvd.

On westbound Hwy. 36, speeds are around 20 miles per hour between 35E and 35W. Plan on 15 minues there.

There are a couple spin outs on the system. One is on northbound Hwy. 169 at 49th Avenue in New Hope. Another is on eastbound 94 at Marion Street in St. Paul.
