Traffic is starting to jam up on westbound 494 in the area of Hwy. 61. Be ready for a minor delay through there. Ahead traffic slows at Cedar Avenue due to a fender bender at Lyndale Avenue.

On northbound 35W, it's a 12-minute drive from the Crosstown to downtown Minneapolis.

On westbound 94, it's about 18 minutes from Marion Street over to 11th Street in Minneapolis.

In the north metro, 35W is still packed from 95th Avenue down to I-694. Look for a wreck on the right shoulder at County Road 10. It's 22 minutes down to Hwy. 280.
