The vehicle fire on the ramp from westbound Crosstown to Tracy Avenue is out and the ramp has reopened. The vehicle is still sitting on the ramp and a trooper is on the scene, so use caution if you drive that way.

In Lakeville, good news for northbound motorists as all lanes have opened following overnight road work. Two lanes open.

Watch out for a disabled vehilce on the right shoulder of westbound 494 at Pilot Knob Road in Eagan.

So far, traffic is moving swiftly across the system, but look for levels to pick up in the next 15 minutes.
