Metro Transit says track issues in Fridley are resulting in big delays for Northstar Commuter line riders.

Elsewhere, Metro Transit says 75 percent of buses are on schedule. The average delay is 4.5 minutes. Tehre are minor delays on the Blue Line.

For MVTA riders, no flexing on routes 421 in Savage and 420 from Rosemount to Apple Valley. This from transit headquarters: Things are slow and we are unable to do any off-routes on our two flex route (421-Savage and 420- Rosemount to Apple Valley). They will both operate along their designated routes. If streets are plowed, we hope to resume the "flex" this afternoon.
