Few commuters are grumbling about Friday's drive to work. We continue to stay accident and incident free and traffic is flowing smoothly.

Even drivers on northbound 35W who are having to tap the brakes really can't complain. One small pocket of congestion between County Road 42 and Black Dog Road is pretty minor potatoes compared to what commonly develops on that section.

Southbound 494 has a brief set back from 49th Avenue to Rockford Road in Plymouth. But even so, that only adds 2 minutes to the drive, hardly worth mentioning.
