Crashes and slick conditions are making for a long slow commute on Hwy. 169. Southbound it's a half hour from 94 to Hwy. 7. Look for a wreck at Cedar Lake Road.

Northbound 169 is also 30 minutes from Canterbury Road to 494.

Westbound 212 is inching along from Hwy. 101 to the Crosstown. The culprit is a crash in the eastbound lanes at Candlewood Pkwy. Lots of flashing lights are leading to a gwaker slowdown.

On southbound 35W, it's a 27-minute trek from Lexington Avenue to Long Lake Road. On northbound 35 through Lakeville, crashes have cleared at 210th Street but things are heavy duty from the scene up to County Road 50.

Eastbound 94 resembles a parking lot from Hwy. 101 to 494. That is a 15-minute drive.

On southbound 35E, plan on 25 mintes from the Forest Lake split to the 694/35E commons. There is a fender bender at County Road 14.

Westbound 94 is moving slower through Woodbury. It's 23 minutes from the St. Croix River to downtown St. Paul.
