A two vehicle tangle in the left lane has traffic on southbound I-35 in Columbus Township coming to a halt. The crash is just south of Hwy. 97.

Ahead, look for another slow up approaching Lexington Avenue, the site of an earlier rollover. If your trip takes you south on 35E, you'll find company from County 96 down to 694. Things tighten up again from Hwy. 36 into downtown St. Paul.

Good news for drivers on southbound Hwy. 280. All lanes have reopened at Energy Park Drive.
