Southbound 35W has filled in over the past few minutes and a steady line of traffic is now making the trip from 95th Avenue to Hwy. 280 at 20 minutes.

That commute time jumped considerably in the past 10 minutes.

Southbound 35E is busy in a couple spots. Expect a brief slow down in the vicinity of County Road J in White Bear Lake and from Roselawn Avenue to I-94 in downtown St. Paul.

The big snag on the system continues to be the semitrailer truck that went into the ditch on eastbound 94 at County 37 in Albertville. Tows have pulled the truck out, but the lanes are still blocked. Traffic is getting by on the right shoulder. Needless to say, that has led to lengthy delays for commuters coming in from Monticello.

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.
