9 a.m. update: A tame rush hour comes to an end

Look for ramp closings at Hwy. 169 and Crosstown as MnDOT crews repair pot holes.

April 4, 2013 at 10:33AM

Now, if every rush hour could be like today's. Few accidents, no major delays and dry roads were the order of the morning.

We end today's commute with only one crash on the system. That on southbound Hwy. 169 just before the intersection of 494. Two vehicles are off on the right shoulder. It's all harmless to motorists.

We do have one closure of note. Look for ramp closings at Hwy. 169 and Crosstown as MnDOT crews repair pot holes.
