The bridge project that has Hwy. 169 reduced to a single lane between Crosstown and Hwy. 7 in both directions has traffic starting to jam up on the southbound trip. Traffic comes to a stop at Minnetonka Blvd. Northbound is still moving decent.

Look out for a motorist who is facing the wrong direction on eastbound 494 at Dodd Road. The driver collided with the cable median.

The ramp from eastbound 394 to southbound 169 is blocked with a driver suffering a medical emergency.

In Stillwater. eastbound Hwy. 36 is closed at Hwy. 5 for police activity. The ramp from Hwy. 5 to east 36 also is closed. Westbound lanes are open. Ahead it's 8 minutes from 35E to 35W.

The jam up on southbound 35W from Lake Drive to 694 is in place. Plan on 15 minutes to make that drive.
