Roads have been good all morning, but there are a couple of exceptions.

The ramp from northbound 494 to westbound Hwy. 12 is temporarily closed as a tow truck pulls a vehicle away.

A fender bender is blocking the right shoulder on westbound Hwy. 36 at Rice Street.

The right shoulder is still blocked on southbound 35 near Hwy. 97 in Forest Lake. Look for a vehicle on the left shoulder, too.
