The Crosstown in both directions is back to its usual tricks with congestion slowing the commute between 35W and Hwy. 100. That is 10 to 12 minutes in each direction.

Look for growing delays on northbound 35E due to a wreck at Yankee Doodle Road. The brake lights come on at Diffley Road, so plan on an extra 10 minutes there.

Northbound 35W slows approach 102nd Street where a crash resides on the right shoulder.

Relief in the north metro? Not so much, even thought the overnight work on westbound 694 has finally lifted. Traffic is crammed on both 694 and westbound Hwy.36, so plan on 20 minutes yet from 35E to 35W on both routes.
