Traffic is barely moving on westbound 494 from Cedar Avenue over to Hwy. 100. Plan on 20 minutes to get through there.
Westbound 94 is still sluggish from downtown St. Paul over to Hwy. 280. Things are stacked up due to an earlier incident in which a tree fell on the road and blocked two lanes for more than an hour.
We still have heavy traffic on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to 694. That is 15 minutes.
A crash at Lexington Avenue is making the trip on westbound Hwy. 36 20 minutes from Hwy. 61 over to 35W.
Elsewhere look for pockets of tight traffic on northbound Hwy. 169 from Hwy. 101 to 494 and on the Crosstown westbound from 35W to France Avenue. There is a stall on the right at France.
