Icy conditions have led to a number of spinouts and crashes on Hwy. 169 just north of 494. In one, a cab slammed into the cable median. Cars in the ditches on both sides.

That's slowing traffic on northbound 169 coming up from Hwy. 13. Plan on 15 minutes there.

The left lane of eastbound Crosstown is blocked with a crash at 28th Avenue.
