Rain and congestion is making the trip on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to Hwy. 280 slow with 17 minutes needed.

It's about 20 minutes on northbound Hwy. 169 from County Road 18 across the Bloomington Ferry Bridge in Shakopee and Bloomington.

The overnight road work on 494 through Bloomington has lifted and traffic is moving well between Cedar Avenue and Hwy. 100. Plan on 10 minutes there.

Look for some minor congestion on southbound Hwy. 169 from Hwy. 10 down to 109th Avenue in Champlin.
