Except for a crash on westbound 62 at Gleason Road that is in its final stages, things on the roads are drastically improving.

Although drivers on southbound Hwy. 169 might disagree. It's still 30 minutes from 94 down to Hwy. 7.

There also is a pocket of congestion on westbound 494 from Cedar Avenue to Hwy. 100.

Tim Harlow covers traffic and transportation issues in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, and likes to get out of the office, even during rush hour. He also covers the suburbs in northern Hennepin and all of Anoka counties, plus breaking news and weather.
