It's a good morning for that commute to work. There is plenty of open space on most freeways and highways.
Look for a little slowing on southbound 35W from Hwy. 10 to Hwy. 280. That is still only an 11-minute drive.
You'll find a few pockets of slow traffic on southbound Hwy. 169 from 94 down to Hwy. 55. That's still only a few minutes 13 minutes.
Southbound 35E is a little tight from Maryland Avenue to 94 in St. Paul.
