9 a.m. update: Current drive times

Late rush hour commuters are sailing right along as the system has very little in the way of congestion.

One exception is southbound 494 from Rockford Road to 394. A few pockets of congestion also dog Hwy. 169 drivers in both directions through St. Louis Park between Plymouth Avenue and Minnetonka Blvd. Some debris is blocking the northbound lanes at 22nd Street.

Look out for a fender bender on the eastbound 494 overpass at Hwy. 100 and a stall in the left lane on southbound 35E at Little Canada Road.
