Keeping tabs on Monday's morning commute

Today is Martin Luther King Day and that means many folks will have the day off. That could translate into lighter than normal traffic volumes for those who do have to work today.

Good morning, commuters!

Today is Martin Luther King Day and that means many folks will have the day off. That could translate into lighter than normal traffic volumes for those who do have to work today.

It's all clear on the roads at this hour. A rollover crash that has three lanes blocked on eastbound 94 at Hwy. 61 has just cleared and all lanes are back open. Traffic has been getting by on the shoulder only.

I'll be keeping an eye on the roads and rails this morning, reporting any delays or issues — and I will need your help.

If you see or hear about any congestion, delays or problems, e-mail drive@startribune or tweet @stribdrive.
