Traffic is slowing on I-494 in both directions between Hwy. 169 and Cedar Avenue. It's the typical congestion, but it is enough to add about five extra minutes to the drive. There is a report of a crash at westbound 494 at France Avenue, but it's not visible on traffic cameras.

Northbound Hwy. 169 is tight between County Road 83 and Anderson Lake Pkwy. Plan on 10 minutes to reach 494.
