A spinout and a motorist in the ditch on eastbound 694 at Brooklyn Blvd. has commuters slowing to take a look. Brake lights come on at Zane Avenue.

It's absoulutely brutal on eastbound Crosstown due to a lane-blocking wreck at Valley View Road. The delays begin at Gleason Road. Plan on 25 minutes if you get caught in the backup.

Northbound Hwy. 169 has pockets of slow and go traffic from Canterbury Road up to 494. That is 15 to 19 minutes.

Northbound Cedar Avenue and 35W continue to creep along from County Road 42 up to the Crosstown. That is 20 minutes on both routes.

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