The four-car wreck on westbound Crosstown just past Cedar Avenue is still taking out the left lane. As a result, traffic comes to a stop at Hiawatha Avenue, which just might be your best out if downtown Minneapolis is your destination.
Westbound 694 is starting to thin out. A crash on the Mississippi River bridge has cleared out, which is helping. Still, look for traffic to sputter between 35E and Hwy. 252, a 16-minute drive.
