We are incident and accident free at this hour, but crowded conditions are slowing the commute on westbound 494 from Cedar Avenue to Hwy. 100.

Drivers on 694 through the work zone between Hwy. 252 and University Avenue will encounter slow and go conditions, which will add a few minutes to the drive.

The same is true on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to 694.

Westbound 94 from Keats Avenue to Mounds Blvd. is just starting to fill in, but so far there are no major delays on that route.

On other routes, look for lighter levels of traffic and an easy drive.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. 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.

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
