Traffic maps are showing more green than red, and that is good news for commuters who are heading into the office at this hour.
A few exceptions are on westbound 494 where it's still 20 minutes from Hwy. 5 over to Hwy. 100. Southbound 494 is tight from 94 down to Hwy. 55.
The Crosstown westbound also is sluggish from 35W to Hwy. 100.
In Coon Rapids, we have the left lane blocked on eastbound Hwy. 10 at Egret Blvd. for road work.
The Drive will keep you up to speed with the latest on Twin Cities commuting.
