Traffic is back to the posted speeds on eastbound 94 from Rogers to Maple Grove now that a crash at Brockton Lane has cleared and things have loosened up nicely.

On southbound 35W, look for a pocket of congestion from Stinson Blvd. to Washington Avenue. It's 8 minutes from Hwy. 280 to downtown.

We've still got a ramp jam from southbound 35E to southbound Hwy. 52 due to the single lane configuration on the Lafayette Bridge. Look for slow traffic on eastbound 94 as motorists line up to get on the Lafayette.

Keep an eye out for motorcycles. We've got one down on the ramp from eastbound 394 to Hopkins Crossroad.

Some kind of an object is obstructing traffic on eastbound 494 at Hardman Avenue. Elsewhere on 494 traffic in both directions zips right along between Bloomington and Woodbury.

At this hour, I'm not seeing any big delays on any of the mainline routes, so enjoy the ride.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
