9 a.m. update: Rush hour wrap up

Currently the slow spots include northbound 35W from the Crosstown to downtown Minneapolis and along eastbound 394 from Hwy. 169 over to Penn Avenue. Look out for a bucket in the lane on eastbound 394 at Xenia Ave.

The morning rush hour was fairly uneventful with only a few crashes and congestion confined to the usual areas.

Currently the slow spots include northbound 35W from the Crosstown to downtown Minneapolis and along eastbound 394 from Hwy. 169 over to Penn Avenue. Look out for a bucket in the lane on eastbound 394 at Xenia Ave.

Look for a tight fit on southbound 94 heading into the Lowry Hill Tunnel and continuing over to 35W. That is 10 minutes.

We have pockets of slow traffic on southbound 35W from Hwy. 10 to County 96 and on westbound Hwy. 36 from Dale Street to Cleveland Avenue.

That is it for today. I'll be back Wednesday with your look at the morning drive to work and school.
