The northbound lanes of Hwy. 52 at County Road 42 in Rosemount remains closed as authorities investigate a serious injury accident that happened earlier this morning.

A semitrailer truck rolled over and burst into flames. The driver was taken to the hospital. Southbound lanes are open.

On the Hwy. 169 watch, things are building on the Bloomington Ferry Bridge with delays beginning just south of Hwy. 101. At the present, it doesn't look as bad as it has all week, but Friday's often bring lighter levels of traffic during the summer. I do expect delays to get worse as the rush hour goes on.

In the north metro, southbound 35W is moving at near the posted speeds between Lake Drive and County Road 96. No problems in the 694 work zone to the north from Hwy. 252 to Central Avenue.

The last of the overnight road work on 494 is about to lift. It's still in place on eastbound 494 at France Avenue.

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
