The latest crash on the system comes in the form of a fender bender on westbound Hwy. 36 at Lexington Avenue in Roseville.

Elsewhere, it's congestion and wet roads making for a very slow commute.

On eastbound 94, it's 30 minutes from Albertville to the 494/94/694 split in Maple Grove.

Southbound 35E is thick from Tart Lake Road down to I-694. That is 20 minutes.

The usual congestion is in place on southbound 35W from 95th Avenue down to 694. That is 21 minutes.

It's heavy duty on westbound Hwy. 610 from Hwy. 10 across the Mississippi River Bridge.

Both southbound 494 and 169 are quickly filling in, so plan on a few extra minutes if that is your route.
