The overnight road work on eastbound 494 at France Avenue has cleared and lanes in both directions are open and flowing freely.

On southbound 35W, look for minor congestion forming between Hwy. 10 and I-694.

Elsewhere things are moving at the posted speeds and roads are in good condition.

A reminder to motorists, vehicles 35 feet and longer are prohibited from using the crossover on the Lafayette Bridge in St. Paul. Those vehicles should avoid Hwy. 52 between 7th Street and Plato Blvd.
