6:15 a.m. update: Slow but not horrible in Lakeville

Drivers are definitely feeling the squeeze on northbound I-35 through Lakeville with the toughest conditions between 195th Street and County Road 50. The trip from Elko to the Burnsville Split is at about 12 to 14 minutes at this hour. If things follow the pattern of Monday and Tuesday, that will double as we head into the peak of the rush.

Drivers are definitely feeling the squeeze on northbound I-35 through Lakeville with the toughest conditions between 195th Street and County Road 50. The trip from Elko to the Burnsville Split is at about 12 to 14 minutes at this hour. If things follow the pattern of Monday and Tuesday, that will double as we head into the peak of the rush.

A few drivers have asked why eastbound 94 has been plugging up between Albertville and Rogers the past few days. No real answer as there is an absence of road work and we've not had any crashes. Today, things are crawling along again.
