Scanner reports say an overheated school bus is on the side of the road on Hwy. 100 just south of County Road 81. A new bus is being sent to pick up the kids. Give them room.
The latest crash on the system is on westbound 94 at Hwy. 61. Traffic is heaviest from Mounds Blvd. over to 35E. Ahead, it is 18 minutes to reach downtown Minneapolis.
The Crosstown continues to struggle in both directions between 34th Avenue and Hwy. 100. That is 20 minutes.
