An ambulance has just left the scene of a crash on southbound 35E at Roselawn Avenue on the Maplewood/St. Paul border. Now what's left is a smashed up box truck and some State Patrol squads blocking the left lane.

Traffic is getting by in the right lane only. Things cram up near the 694 interchange.

Over on Hwy. 169 across the Minnesota River, traffic is flowing along without incident. No congestion or delays at this hour, but that isn't likely to hold.

Northbound 35W looks good through Bloomington, Burnsville and south Minneapolis, making for a short drive into downtown.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. 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.
