For a bit of good news, the tire changing operation that snarled traffic on southbound Hwy. 169 from Rockford Road to Cedar Avenue has cleared, and things are moving reasonably well through New Hope.

For a bit of good news, the tire changing operation that snarled traffic on southbound Hwy. 169 from Rockford Road to Cedar Avenue has cleared, and things are moving reasonably well through New Hope.

Elsewhere, things are just plain stuck. That's the case on southbound 94 from Lowry Avenue to the Tunnel. A wreck at Broadway just cleared, but traffic is crammed.

Look out for a car that is hung up in the guard rail on westbound Hwy. 36 at Dale Street. You'll hit the line up around Edgerton Street.

Look for lane closures on southbound 35W approaching 38th Street. Authorities are cleaning up a roll over crash.

A ramp jam from eastbound 694 to southbound 35W is the result of a crash partially blocking.

Things are looking a bit better on westbound Hwy. 610 at Winnetka Avenue. The crash has been moved to the right shoulder and all lanes are back open.

For eastbound 94 drivers, plan on 20 minutes from Hwy. 101 to the Fish Lake Split.

Southbound 35W drivers can plan on spending 31 minutes from Lexington Avenue to downtown Minneapolis.

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.
